#55 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2009
This Riesling is a great classic of Alsace. At once delicate and vital, its intense fruit is given great length by a backcome of crisp acidity producing some of the world's greatest and longest tasting wines.
Alsatian Riesling are usually dry, in order to match with food. Riesling is particularly conveniant with sushis, fish, grilled or with sauce, traditional alsatian meals such as the onion pie or sauerkraut.
Subtle, offering a finely woven mix of white peachand crushed pine needle flavors, with hints of brine and smoke. There's racy acidity, but it's well-meshed, with a mineral note on the delicate finish. Drink now through 2015.
