Spice, floral, lychee, this vintage has taken on some weight since last I tried it 20 months ago, medium-long finish, this goes very well with the stir fry my wife served tonight!! — 18 hours ago

So, this is Agathe’s top cuvée of Sylvaner (which I’ve heard is one of her favorite grapes) grown in the Grand Cru “Zinnkoepfle” — the problem in Alsace is that Sylvaner is not considered a “noble” grape, and thus this wine is “Eminence” rather than identifying the vineyard site. With that said, spicy aromatics, floral and ripe white stonefruit aromas and flavors, great acid balance adds depth and complexity, super fine Alsatian Sylvaner!! — 4 months ago

Spicy, just a tad off-dry, lovely and pure white stonefruits, nice weight and body, good acid balance, medium-long finish, needs cellaring. — 7 months ago

Spice, mineral, starting to take on some roundness, but retains its great balancing acidity, I have a long-term fondness for Alsatian Pinot Blanc, this has definitely improved since last bottle I opened, very hood! — 8 days ago

Faint petrol/diesel aromas, floral and white stonefruit aromas and flavors dominate, very youthful and primary, very good acid, this also needs further aging, very nice Alsatian Riesling!! — 2 months ago

This Vin Doux works well with some cherry pie, I’d guess this is 2% or so R.S., so still lovely Muscat, albeit with that little bit of sweetness, medium-long finish, very nice!! — 4 months ago

Dark fruited aromas and flavors, this still shows a quite firm structure, long, lingering finish, this needs further cellaring, very fine Alsatian Pinot Noir!! — 5 months ago
