89-92 ST "Smoky, stony aromas of lemon oil and ripe citrus fruits...with a leesy complexity and layered texture....Long, subtle finishing flavors cling to the palate." 89-92 ST "Smoky, stony aromas of lemon oil and ripe citrus fruits; still on its lees and thus in a reduced state today. Fatter and denser than the above, with a leesy complexity and layered texture. Not currently showing its purity, but dense and strong in extract. Long, subtle finishing flavors cling to the palate. Comes across as thoroughly dry. Hard to judge today but offers excellent potential."

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.
