"Yellow plum and white peach are laced with lemon, salt and piquant crunchy yet tender sprouts and shoots of myriad edible plants. The citric concentration here almost makes me wince, yet there is enough buffering thanks to palpably high extract; more-than-generous lusciousness of pit fruits; and, in paradigmatic Alzinger fashion, transparency to myriad mineral and herbal nuances that impinge with kaleidoscopic complexity. Vibrantly bright and penetratingly persistent, the saliva-inducingly saline, shimmeringly mineral finish incorporates a peppery bite and glowingly cyanic intensity of fruit pit . . ."

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.
