André Kientzler 2016 Schoenenbourg Grand Cru Riesling (Alsace)

Country: France / Schoenenbourg Grand Cru
Variety: Riesling Alsace
Winery: André Kientzler / Alsace

A stirringly pure notion of ripe lemon on the nose is accompanied by a touch of freshly turned earth. The palate follows suit, with the soaring lift of pure lemon and the grounding notion of beautiful earthiness. This is dry and linear, shapely and concentrated and ultimately very refreshing and totally gratifying. The finish is pure and lasting. Drink 2018–2030.
