Cave de Turckheim Riesling Alsace Grand Cru Brand 2022
An exemplary Alsace Riesling, combining elegance, intensity, and complexity. Cave de Turckheim Grand Cru Brand Riesling 2019 delivers finely tuned citrus, pear, and floral aromas, underpinned by a flinty minerality, and a beautifully balanced palate with richness, smoky nuances, and lively acidity. Meet the producer Widely regarded as one of the best co-operatives in the world, Cave de Turckheim sits at the mouth of the Munster Valley, dedicated to crafting wines of precision, balance, and regional expression. Production Grapes are sourced from the Grand Cru Brand vineyard, planted on dry granite soils with a southerly aspect providing high levels of sunshine. Only Riesling, Muscat d’Alsace, Pinot Gris, and Gewurztraminer are permitted in these exceptional plots. Winemaker Jean Michel Lihrmann employs traditional methods: pneumatic pressing, temperature-controlled fermentation, minimal filtration, and no finings, preserving the wine’s fruit, aromatic complexity, and vibrant acidity. Tasting notes Fine and dry on the nose with elegant pear, citrus, and floral aromas supported by subtle toast and wet-gravel minerality. The palate is broader and textured, balancing richness with a smoky undertone and crisp, persistent acidity. Food match Perfect with seafood, or the classic Alsace pairings of rich pork and cheese dishes such as Choucroute or Tarte Flambée (Flammküche). Grape Riesling 100%
Tokara Chardonnay Reserve Collection 2022
