"The nose of the 2001 Riesling Clos Windsbuhl (indice 2) exhibits intensely spicy minerals and white flowers. From the coolest of Zind-Humbrecht’s numerous vineyard holdings, the grapes that fashioned this broad, mouth-coating wine were harvested in November. Immensely pure and persistent, it boasts a stone, crisp pear, and mineral-packed medium-bodied character. "

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Sheltered by the Vosges mountains, Alsace produces aromatic, mostly dry varietal whites - Riesling, Gewurztraminer and Pinot Gris - of exceptional purity and ageability.
A highly aromatic white of piercing acidity and transparency to terroir, ranging from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. It ages remarkably and is the noble grape of Germany and Alsace.
