Brand Alsace Grand Cru Riesling
Brand, Turckheim, Alsace, France
Med+ aroma and flavor intensity, pear, peach & beeswax, med/high acidity, shows its age well; finesse comes to mind, this is a dry Riesling w/drink now quality, but is still evolving. Very good.

Apr 8th, 2018Lacking much of a nose at all, even after warming up. Crisp Bosc pear and lychee on the palate though with great acidity. Best pairing was with the tomato bisque. :)

Feb 8th, 20172014 in 8/22. A KL grab likely bfr lvg CA. $25. Drink windows thru 25+ but this seemed to hv lost its verve. Limpid and lacking general zip I expected. Less than stellar Rsl is better than a lot of other things so I'm not bitching.
