The terroir range of wines from Philippe Zinck is made to showcase the vineyards, in this case a chalk and clay property near Eguisheim. The wine is textured and full of tropical fruits—mangos and pineapple—along with a complex pepper and spice structure. Drink from 2016.

Yes, it is spicy, but this is also an elegant wine, balancing its honeyed sweetness and tropical fruits with a stylish acidity and sophisticated perfume. Warm and round at the end, it is ready to drink.
