Are wines from noble grape selection better than late harvest?

0

Indeed, noble grape selection is a quality level above late harvest. It is the quintessence of wine in Alsace. We sort grapes, grape by grape to keep only the best. It is pure noble rot. The ratio of production is 1 to 10, i.e. a bottle of noble grape for 10 bottles of late harvest. There are minimums of maturity. For the late harvest, the minimum is 15.3 of potential alcohol, for the noble grape it is 18.2. Only three degrees is a huge difference, a whole world between the two!
