From clay-limestone on the southern side of the Altenberg. This is all about rich petrol and citrus notes. Good acidity. Apple skin and minerality. — 2 months ago

Domaine Sylvie Spielmann, les Vendanges de l'Amour. Qualitative Pinot noir from Alsace. Nose with hints of cherry (unusual) and wood. Dry tannins (usual for an Alsace pinot noir). Very good work. — 7 months ago

Field blend of Riesling, Pinot Gris, Pinot Beurot, Muscat and Pinot Noir from the Engelgarten, a vineyard with poor, gravelly soils located just outside the walls of Bergheim (about 10 miles north of Colmar, in the Haut Rhin). Pure, expressive nose with notes of citrus, rubber and minerals. Intense, dry, textured. Slightly ripe. Long, saline finish. — 3 years ago

There are a few producers in the world about which I can say unequivocally that I adore every wine they make. Domaine Marcel Deiss is one of them. @domainemarceldeiss. I managed to get ahold of some older vintage wines recently and I’m trying very hard not to drink them too fast, but they’re just so darn good. Decided to open this one over dinner with friends last night and it was glorious. Crystallized honey, parchment, dried orange peels, and herbs, all welded to a core of crushed stone. Fantastic. This is a most unusual (though not for Deiss) field blend of Riesling, Pinot Gris, Pinot Beurot, Muscat, and Pinot Noir. — 3 years ago

I'm taken back to the mustard fields of Alsace staring up at the hectares of old field blends in Berkhem. — 9 months ago

One of the two 'Village' hierarchy wines (Berckem is the other) offered by Marcel Deiss.
This is mainly Pinot Gris but with blend of other characters (the way it was originally done in Alsace). Yellow/gold hue. Immediately out of the bottle I get the distinct sur lees smell. Give these some time in the glass and you'll be rewarded with unfamiliar olfactory territory- there is no one distinct scent but instead a bouquet spring wild blossoms and a melange of musk and spice, freshly cut apples and I always get a hint of mustard seed from Bergheim wines.
On the palette sharp acid is smoothed over by a slightly plush texture. Imagine a bite of unripened yellow apples in a pie filling before it hits the oven.
Not bad for their entry level wines! — 2 years ago
