"Full gold. Deep, inviting, potpourri-like aromas of orange, cinnamon, ginger, vanilla and toast. Broad, spicy and dry, with the nutty quality carrything through in the mouth. With its rich, almost oily, remarkably seamless texture, this beauty reminded me of a top white Burgundy of equal age."

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.
