Slate, Lime and Roses: New Dry Alsatian Grand Cru Riesling

Chiseled, fresh, pitch-perfect Riesling for summer

If there’s one wine in our portfolio that rivals white Burgundy for complexity and depth, it’s Riesling. The perennially underrated grape is capable of remarkably layered subtlety, and often comes with a surprisingly friendly pricetag. This week we opened a terrific bottle of biodynamic Grand Cru Riesling from Alsace, and we’re excited to suggest it today.

Vincent Gross makes tiny quantities of exquisite wine in his picturesque town in Alsace. His 2018 Riesling Goldert Grand Cru is elegant and delicious – the nose bursts with classic slate and petrol, alongside roses and lime zest. The mouth is dry and very long, with excellent focus amid the concentrated fruit.

Serve this when it’s too hot to drink Chassagne.
