Domaine Gross, 'Variation' 2022 USA Join certified wine nerd FionnPlace: Alsace, France Grape: Sylvaner Vibe: Herbal Sylvaner sees 18 days of skin contact before an eight month sleep in amphora, giving it a lovely oily texture. Serious notes of preserved lemon, with some juicy apple coming through in the middle and distinct aromas of sage and thyme. Would be cracking alongside a roast chicken, if you're into those. ABV: 11%
