Alsace/Austria - Great Riesling
The ultimate treat for all Riesling fanatics! All four of the Alsace domaines are completely biodynamic.
The Clos Hauserer from Zind Humbrecht and the the Grand Cru Hengst from Barmes-Buecher make for an interesting comparison as the Hauserer is located at the foot of the Hengst. They share the same marl/Oligocene calcaire terroir but the soils on the Hauserer are noticeably deeper.
The granite soils of the Brand give a very different, more powerful yet more open expression whilst the Cuvee Catherine from Weinbach is the epitome of elegance. Martin Nigl from the Kremstal producers beautifully balanced, open styled wines.
The Privat is produced from old vines from the Seftenberger Piri vineyard, a wonderfully complex, with lovely balance of white peach fruit, spice and minerality.
The Kirchweg from Rudi Pichler is one of the finest sites of the Wachau. Rudi produces very backward, steely wines which need time to evolve. The 2002 is a great vintage and this wine has matured beautifully.
