Riesling Estate 2020

- 93 points -

The 2020 Riesling Estate is from marly soils around Riquewihr, including the upper part of the grand cru Schoenenbourg. The nose is discreet yet complex and layered with flinty and earthy aromas as well as yellow paprika notes. Very elegant and refined on the palate, this is an intense, saline and structural Riesling with fine tannins, lots of salt and a serious, maybe even somewhat austere personality. The 2020 surely has an excellent aging capacity and will further improve in the bottle. 14% stated alcohol. Diam cork. Tasted at the domaine in April 2024.
