I went to a wine shop with a connected restaurant since you can buy retail priced wines with minimal corkage. Visiting from out of town, I saw a premium priced Alsatian Pinot Gris. I spent the $70 retail plus $15 corkage. Had it chilled and realized immediately it was a VT. (I forgot my reading glasses and the lighting shop was dim) Not always for stickies with food but this was a bright, healthy wine with muted sweetness and peaches, tangerines, and stone fruit. Would I order a VT with dinner? Perhaps not but a mellow 20 YO wine was fun to drink

    I’m not familiar with the style. Can someone give me a primer?
