Marcel Deiss Alsace Schoffweg Premier Cru
| Vintage: | 2014 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Biodynamic And Certified Organic. Vinous 91 Points - "Pale straw-green. Minerals, ginger and dried fruits on the bright nose. Juicy and off-dry, featuring vibrant flavors of pear, peach and sweet spices given grip by lemon and crushed stones. Quite tactile on the long back end; this tastes like its oaked, but its not. I find notes of honey and noble rot too, but Mathieu Deiss said there was no botrytis. According to him, the honeyed note is typical of the Schoffweg and contributes to this wines easy-to-drink nature. In an interesting generational battle, Mathieus father Jean-Michel told me he would have harvested these grapes a few days later to gather more concentration and ripeness, while Mathieu wanted to make brighter, fresher wine more in tune with todays modern, hyper-busy lifestyle. Theres no way of knowing what might have been, but this is really pretty good." |
