Brand (Turckheim) Grand Cru Riesling 2015

Very enjoyable! With complexity but still easy to approach, has petroleum notes alternating with flowery and fruity. More on the ripe and even a tiny sweet side. — 14 hours ago

Pfalz Feinherb Riesling 2023

Delicate aromas of peach and apricot and Alpine flowers. Soft on the palate with balanced unripe peach tartness and a little honeysuckle sweetness. Danke, Deutschland! — 5 months ago

Clos Jebsal Vendange Tardive Turckheim Pinot Gris 2015

Vintage 2015 | this wine disappointed me, sweet but not cloying, good balance but also a hint of oxidation and less body than I would expect. — 10 months ago

Turckheim Muscat 2021

Here’s a dry, crisp white made from the Muscat variety (Muscat Blanc a Petits Grains), which is the same grape & has the same aromatic profile as the sweet, sparkling Moscato d’Asti wines of Italy, but was made in a dry, still & “French” style.

It was crafted by Domaine Zind-Humbrecht, an organic & biodynamic Alsatian producer, with fruit hailing from the Herrenweg vineyard of Turckheim, atop alluvial gravel & silt soils, in the sunny & dry Munster valley. ☀️🌱

Immediately I was struck by the perfumed bouquet of fruit & florals on the nose, which persist on the palate, featuring harmonious notes of citrus blossom, jasmine, honeysuckle, lilac, white peach, apricot, yellow apple, mandarin peel, beeswax, & wet stones. It’s dry, w/ medium alcohol, a medium body, balanced by a refreshing acidity.

It was a lovely pairing with the cucumber, watermelon, & feta salad, adding aromatic dimensions that complement the flavors of the salad, with a strong personality that doesn’t get lost in the shadows. Cheers!
