This dry Riesling from the Baden region is intense in fruit and white flowers right from the nose. On the palate, the acidic structure is reminiscent of citrus fruit mingled with a certain roundness. The saline finish is long. A perfect companion for spicy dishes, fish or creamy meats. A great success!

Expert opinion

Bettane & Desseauve

Bettane & Desseauve

Domaine rated 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one has the right to expect from its appellation(s))

About the domain :

Biodynamic viticulture always takes a few years to take effect, both in terms of rooting and soil life, and Michel Chapoutier is well aware of this, having bought this estate in 2009 with a few wine-loving friends. Located in northern Alsace, on a vein of blue schist, the estate is gradually making its mark. The Riesling parcels (Burg, Buehl and Fels) are beginning to bring out the subtle nuances of the soil.

Note and review by M. FREDERIC B. Published on 01/03/2020

Drunk 02/20. Lively attack on the palate, with a little pearliness. With aeration, the mid-palate becomes creamy, fat and the finish is quite long. Lovely Riesling
