"Super fresh for three years of age, the floral-honey and beeswax aromas are very enticing. This is so cool and tightly-wound for the warm and sometimes overblown vintage. Pretty dry, the hint of natural grape sweetness is almost completely obscured by the profound, wet-stone minerality. Enormously concentrated and totally focused finish. A co-fermented field-blend of varieties. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold."

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.
