Alsace Grand Cru Schoenenbourg

What an extraordinary and polarizing expression of the great Schoenenbourg site. The interplay of the floral honey and dark earthy character of this wine is off the scale. This great masterpiece of Alsace white wine stubbornly refuses to conform to the simple categories of dry and off-dry white wine. In the finish the richness and salty minerality collide. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

Opens with a lovely nose of petrol and spices, segueing to glazed apple and tangerine fruit flavors, with accents of chamomile, graphite and dried mint. This deftly knits well-honed acidity to a silky, succulent off-dry profile. Riesling, Pinot Gris, Gewürztraminer and Muscat. Drink now through 2030. 120 cases made, 30 cases imported.
