The 2023 Ostertag Les Jardins Pinot Blanc is a biodynamically farmed Alsace white blending Pinot Blanc, Pinot Auxerrois and a small portion of Pinot Gris. The nose is fresh and expressive, showing pear, apple and stone fruit with white flowers, preserved lemon, almond and delicate mineral notes.
On the palate, it is dry and gently rounded, with fresh acidity balancing orchard fruit, citrus and a subtle creamy texture. Native-yeast fermentation and extended time on the lees add depth while maintaining freshness, leading to a clean, mineral-driven finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for drinkers who enjoy fresh Alsace whites with aromatic fruit, gentle texture and bright acidity. Enjoy now or over the next few years and pair with grilled fish, prawns, sushi, roast chicken or light vegetable dishes.
