"Pale golden-yellow color. Fresh, nuanced nose combines seared pineapple, mango, orange marmalade, peach, apricot, clove and caraway seed. Decidedly richer and more intense than the VT, with lovely purity of fruits and spices. Compellingly pliant, moderately viscous wine, but not at all heavy. Exhilarating noble rot here gives this wine terrific juiciness. Finishes with endless spice 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.
