Riesling Les Pierrets 2023

This cuvée is made from a small plot on the northern slope of the Grand Cru Hengst (a marly-calcareous terroir rich in iron from Rotenberg) as well as two plots of gravel and alluvium located on the plain in the commune of Turckheim.

Sowing in alternate rows. Light plowing.

This great dry white wine is very representative of the Estate's style. Its taut, sometimes austere structure in colder vintages, its saline and pure length, the precision of its acidity and the minerality that evolves towards flint over time is a model of clarity for this grape variety. In warmer vintages, the charm of the Pierrets, its sensual and vibrant minerality will shift to citrus flesh. For a young vintage, decanting for a few hours is recommended.

This wine will pair wonderfully with fish and seafood in its first 10 years of evolution (as well as Alsatian dishes). An assortment of goat cheese or a fruity Comté. After 10 years, it will enjoy being paired with a creamy poultry dish or coq au vin.
