Zind Humbrecht Riesling Clos Windsbuhl (750ML)
From Alsace
| Vintage: | 2022 |

| Description: | 97 JS / 96 Vm. At once powerful and crystalline, this densely structured dry riesling is made for the long term. Extremely lemony and salty on the medium- to full-bodied palate, then so compact at the very long, driving finish, which is as pointed as a rapier. The last riesling harvested in this vintage, but with the lowest alcohol and the highest acidity. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but best from 2026.-James Suckling. The 2022 Riesling Clos Windsbuhl is a "bucolic" site, Humbrecht says, surrounded by forest and fields at altitude. It is on rocky Triassic limestone. The wine is slightly flinty and nutty on the nose. The palate is stony, too, taut and bright but flowing like clear spring water, cooling, with ever more citrus coming to the fore. Lemon zestiness and lovely brightness make this mouthpuckeringly tangy and deliciously thrilling. (Bone-Dry) -- Anne Krebiehl Mw, Vinous Media |
