In the press

96/100 - This is a gorgeously matured dry Riesling classic from Ribeauvillé that drinks perfectly today and pairs with many kind of dishes. The wine has an intense citrus color and opens with a very clear, deep, dense and aromatic bouquet of dried fruits along with herbal and mineral aromas. Full-bodied, pure and elegant, yet complex and mineral on the palate, this is a silky textured but well-structured dry Riesling with intense and persistent fruit, fine tannins and lingering salinity. Bottled April 2009, this is a great dry Riesling blend from the Grands Crus Geisberg and Osterberg. Drink 2017-2038
Stephan Reinhardt, The Wine Advocate

Tasting note

Enticing aromas of candied lemon peel, lime marmalade, quince, pineapple, chamomile and honey. Fabulously satisfying, its rich texture is kept fresh by zesty acidity and enlivened by intriguing notes of beeswax, pine forest, pineapple and lemon.

Vinification

The grapes are always picked by hand as late as possible in order to achieve maximum ripeness and pressed very gently in a pneumatic press. The juice runs into the cellar by gravity and clarifies naturally prior to fermentation. The juice ferments in stainless steel at controlled temperature for 3-4 weeks. The wine is vinified to complete dryness.
