The 1991 Pinot d'Alsace is super! In 1991 Zind-Humbrecht harvested their Pinot Blanc at even higher ripeness levels than in 1989 and 1990, two torridly hot, drought years. This wine is bursting with fruit and aromas of oranges and ripe apples. It is medium to full-bodied, with gorgeous levels of rich fruit, crisp acidity, and a terrific finish. It is a shame more readers do not know what a dazzling wine Pinot Blanc can be. It is one of the most delicious, food-friendly white wines in the world.As extraordinary as the 1989 and 1990 Zind-Humbrecht wines are, these 1991s, largely because of the difficulties presented by the vintage, are even more amazing. Readers must keep in mind that for the top Alsatian producers the situation is much like that in Burgundy - only tiny quantities of wine available. Between 50 and 150 cases of each wine is the entire allocation for the American market.I do not ever remember a producer in a so-so year making such magnificent wines! Bravo to Olivier and Leonard Humbrecht!Zind-Humbrecht wines are imported by Wine Markets International, Syosset, NY and Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA.
