An exceptional Alsace Grand Cru
Domaine Weinbach's Furstentum Riesling is a dry white wine from the prestigious Furstentum Grand Cru in Alsace. This exceptional terroir, composed of limestone and marl-limestone soils, gives the wine a chiselled minerality and remarkable depth. Made exclusively from Riesling, the noble grape variety par excellence, it captivates with its balance of tension and aromatic complexity. On opening, it reveals an intense bouquet with notes of ripe citrus fruit, white-fleshed fruit and subtle floral touches. On the palate, the freshness and precision of the Riesling express themselves with elegance, supported by a fine saline structure and a lingering finish. This exceptional wine is certified biodynamic, reflecting the expertise of Domaine Weinbach and its commitment to viticulture that respects the terroir.
How to serve it and ageing potential
To fully appreciate its aromas and structure, Domaine Weinbach's Furstentum Riesling should be enjoyed at between 10 and 12°C, after light aeration. It goes wonderfully well with refined dishes such as fine fish, seafood or poultry in sauce. Thanks to its well-balanced acidity and fine concentration, this Grand Cru has remarkable ageing potential, extending over 15 to 20 years, or even longer for great vintages. Over time, it develops more complex notes of candied fruit, honey and beeswax, while retaining its brilliant freshness. An exceptional wine for lovers of great terroir Rieslings.
