23 in stock

This Riesling presents a straw yellow colour with green tints and is marked by a good aromatic intensity, a refined nose of citrus aromas (lemon, grapefruit) and a hint of minerality. On the palate the attack is straightforward, fresh on citrus flavours, well-balanced, showing a good persistence on lemon. Food pairings: Great with shellfish and sushis, this wine also pairs well with grilled fish, roasted poultry, snails, pasta with lemon pesto, traditional Alsace dishes or fresh goat’s cheese.

Alsace wines are produced using the seven varietals of the Alsace AOC terroir: Sylvaner, Riesling, Muscat, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Noir. Each varietal gives a different wine, ranging from dry whites to spicy, fruity whites to fruity red wines with low tannin content. The tracking, verifying and setting up of production rules, along with good growing practices, are an essential pillar of quality for Wolfberger wines. Technicians in the Wolfberger vineyards watch over quality optimization of 13,000 parcels, assuring traceability of all the grapes that are delivered during the harvest. To do this, each parcel is identified and indexed on an intranet file (varietal, planting date, grafting, etc) with tracking in real time of all the operations done by the winegrower (pruning, flowering, treatment, trellising, thinning out the leaves) and verification of the means used. This in-depth verification and tracking assures, at the base, optimal potential of the parcels.
