"An opulent, off-dry version, with apricot, vanilla, cream and citrus notes that intensify as this progresses to the lingering finish. This is big, but wears its weight well, with a buttered pastry aftertaste . . . . [Only] 330 cases made."

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.
