Notes from critics
The Rangen de Thann is Alsace's southernmost Grand Cru, famous for its precipitously steep, dark volcanic slopes that plunge down to the Thur River. Domaine Zind-Humbrecht’s biodynamically farmed Clos Saint Urbain Pinot Gris is a force of nature: smoky flint, volcanic sulfur, dried stone fruits, and weightless concentration. A mind-bending, 100-point masterpiece that redefines what Pinot Gris can achieve.

The brain-rattling concentration, smokiness and flinty energy of this unique dry pinot gris don’t fit in any box on this planet. Definitely not full-bodied, but how could you say it is medium-bodied with this intensity of expression? In spite of the power, it shoots almost weightlessly up into the heavens and pulls you with it. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but best from 2027
100
The masterful Pinot Gris is enveloping and smoky, with restrained power and an inner volcanic fire: in our opinion, the greatest Alsatian expression of this grape variety.
