Lees, yeast, apricots, and white peaches are found in the aromatics of the 2000 Pinot Gris Huebel Vendanges Tardives. A wine of massive intensity, concentration, and richness, it also has lovely balance as well as focus. Sporting an unnoticeable 90 grams of residual sugar (the sweetness is buried beneath the layers of fruit), this is a thick, fresh, velvety-textured offering. Projected maturity: 2006-2020. According to Deiss, "2000 was a vintage of great weather, yet one that carries with it problems of balance, like all great vintages. Some will consider these wines as too rich and having too much alcohol or residual sugar." He added that "2001 presented us with climatic chaos but the end result is as great as 2000." Deiss, a bio-dynamic farmer, stressed that he never chaptalizes his wines, including the reds.Importer: New Castle Imports, Inc., Myrtle Beach, SC; tel. (843) 448-9463
