Domaine Weinbach
Schlossberg Alsace Grand Cru Riesling
Vintage 2020 | Rather difficult to taste now, closed nose, I smell some impressions of passion fruit, quite concentrated, fleshy. Huge promise.

Jun 18th, 2022Apricot, peach, kerosene, flowers, medium bodied, saline and medium acidity. 13.5 abv. Not as expressive as some wines I’ve had from them.

Jan 1st, 2022Just not for me, too floral, too much residual sugar. There is complexity but I favor much drier Rieslings.

Nov 5th, 2020Pale gold in colour. A trace of paraffin, tangerine and grapefruit peel. Palate staining intensity - mandarin flesh, ripe grapefruit, low acid with great length. I had a bottle of this a week ago which was oxidised and over the hill so I was thinking the worst for this but Lo and behold this was brilliant. This wine is at its peak. A superb dry Riesling and one of the 1001 Wines.

Apr 18th, 2020Aroma of a freshly opened can of tennis balls and flint. Juicy lime and slate flavors. Succulent.
