Domaine Marcel Deiss
Langenberg Alsace 1er Cru Riesling Blend
Another slam dunk from Alsace! Liquid gold from the great -15 vintage. Nose is oily and full of liquorice, fennel, lots of tropical fruits, and chalkywet minerals; on the palate the wine is equally oily, fruity, robust, peppery and with a high-octane finish. Will keep a box for a few years.

Apr 30th, 2018Fascinating wine. Golden, with a RIESLING dominated note (waxy, oily, petrol) but perfumed too showing the Muscat in the blend. Orange blossom, apricot, quince notes. Quite creamy-perhaps oak? Quite a vibrant acidity, medium bodied with good texture. Mineral vein through out. Light spice on the finish, creamy, and leading into kernel touches. Good complex wine which will benefit from extensive cellaring. Off dry style
