A light to medium-bodied wine, the 1999 Tokay-Pinot Gris Herrenweg has smoky apricot and peach aromas. It is soft and supple on the palate. Pears, spices, peaches, and smoke can be discerned in its seamless character. Drink it over the next 6-7 years.

Produced from 28 hectoliter per hectare yields (extremely low by Alsatian standards), the 1997 Tokay-Pinot Gris Herrenweg offers inviting aromas of honeysuckle-laced yellow fruits. It is medium-bodied, crammed with layers of mirabelles (yellow plums), dried white raisins, and candied lemons. This forward, focused, expressive effort is concentrated and powerful. With a year or two of cellaring my score may prove to have been too conservative. Drink it between now and 2008.Importer: A Peter Vezan Selection, (Paris Fax # 011-33-1-42-55-42-93), various American importers, including: Barriques Wines, Chicago, IL; tel (773) 275-1200; Dionysus Imports, Lorton, VA; tel (703) 751-9416; North Berkeley Imports, Berkeley, CA; tel (800) 266-6585.
