The 2023 Josmeyer Pinot Gris Fromenteau is a richly textured and expressive Alsace white wine from France, produced biodynamically by the highly regarded Domaine Josmeyer. Fromenteau is the traditional Alsatian name for Pinot Gris, and this cuvée reflects the estate’s signature balance of aromatic richness, freshness and mineral precision. The 2023 vintage delivered ripe fruit concentration balanced by vibrant acidity, with the nose revealing aromas of ripe pear, apricot and citrus peel alongside hints of smoke, honey and delicate floral spice.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with a smooth, layered texture supported by lively acidity and mineral tension. Flavours of orchard fruits, stone fruit and candied citrus unfold alongside subtle smoky notes and gentle spice complexity developed through careful maturation. Domaine Josmeyer’s biodynamic approach preserves purity and precision, while the Alsace terroir contributes freshness and structure throughout the palate. The finish is long, dry and finely balanced with lingering fruit and mineral nuances.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Alsace Pinot Gris for customers seeking a textured yet fresh white wine with aromatic depth and strong food-pairing versatility. The 2023 vintage drinks beautifully now while retaining enough structure to evolve over the next 5–8 years. Best served lightly chilled with roast pork, foie gras, mushroom dishes, seafood or mildly spiced Asian cuisine.
