Alsace Riesling Holder 2021 Domaine Schoenheitz

Alsace - Riesling Holder 2021

花崗岩が刻む、スモーキーなミネラル。

花崗岩と粘土質土壌が生む、張りのある酸とスモーキーなミネラルが印象的なリースリング。淡いレモンイエローの色調から、ライムやレモンピールを基調に、パッションフルーツや白桃のエキゾチックなニュアンスが広がります。シャープな酸が全体を引き締め、中盤には果実の厚みと旨味。余韻は長く、塩味を帯びたミネラルと柑橘の苦味が心地よく残ります。オマール海老のポシェや舌平目のムニエルとともに。

Tasting note

A pale lemon yellow in color with a delicate sheen. The aroma is based on fresh citrus fruits, lime and lemon peel, with exotic nuances reminiscent of passion fruit and white peach. Furthermore, flint and smoky minerals from the granite form a structure that adds complexity. In the mouth, the sharp acidity is impressive from the attack, and the taut structure tightens the entire wine. The mid-palate is rich in fruit and umami, with a subtle hint of honey from aging. The finish is long, with salty minerals and a pleasant citrus bitterness.
