The Fall Confrerie St Etienne dinner highlighting Alsatian whites alongside French and Napa reds. A delightful evening!

Here is your petrol! Could smell it a table away. The residual sugar in this had to be low. Very balanced. Compared to the gewurztraminer we had tonight, this wasn’t sweet in any way. Light and refreshing.

#Latergram. So charming - golden and pretty, adorned with flowers and cardamom.

Pure and elegant. Excellent balance of acid to RS. Almost a little bitterness at end that I like. Bit soapy. Best Alsace wine I've ever had remains '05 Weinbach Sylvaner old vine.
