How does Pinot Gris 2022 Reserve by Marto taste?
This incredible wine is simply a banger BUT it needs some time in a carafe, as the initial reduction is not the type that showcases it at its best on first opening BUT... we promise you, if you give this some air this will be one of the finest German wines you will try in a long time, seriously!
After the initial reduction blow off, there is an almost Chablis-esque flinty quality to it, that offers huge mineralic elements lifting the wine to a totally new dimension compared to the more fruit-forward SAME wine, which had one year elevage, not two. This wine truly showcases the beauty of time, and you have to try it!
A true gem and one of his best wines yet.
