Cave de Turckheim Grand Cru Brand Riesling
93 Points Decanter Magazine
“Great concentration of dried apricots and roses on the nose, along with subtle kerosene aromas. On the palate there is tropical fruit, white flowers, candied orange, a hint of Sorrento lemons and juicy lime, with some gentle lees notes, bitter almonds, phenolic ripeness and long, grippy acidity. Beautiful concentration and balance, with gorgeous, saline and mineral acidity." Decanter Magazine.
Cave de Turckheim Grand Cru Brand Riesling - An elegantly complex and intensely satisfying drop! Classy Riesling from Alsace with plenty of ‘tension’, complexity and finesse. Grand Cru Brand is very much the Cave’s Grand Cru with grapes coming from its granitic slopes just behind the winery.
A classy dry white and typical of a fine Riesling - elegant pear and citrus fruit on the nose underpinned by pungent mineral and 'petrol' aromas (the classical perfumed & 'stony' oil trademarks when this grape develops in bottle), which broadens and gets richer in the mouth yet the finish is crisp, steely and racy.
