Producer: Domaine Fleith-Eschard (Ingersheim near Colmar)Owner: Vincent and Rene Fleith-Eschard
Wine Composition: 100% Riesling
Review (Cynthia Hurley):This is a dry, delicious, fruit-driven, minerally Alsatian white. This is not a sweet wine and there is no residual sugar left behind in the fermentation. It is a stunning (dry) wine experience
Wine pairing (suggested):Avocados and scallops come to mind. Lime, garlic, and coriander. Curried, smoked and grilled salmon. Don't forget the asparagus and mushrooms. Pork. Yes, pork with cream and apples. And, of course, duck.
My Notes: Beautiful, clean and clear light yellow (mostly straw) colored wine. Aromas make you feel this may be a tad heavy wine despite the color. Let it sit for about 10-15 mins and you can smell the grapefruits and minerals. Sipping it all the impressions that this may be heavy and sweet give way to light, dry and citrusy feel. Lucky me have six bottles of these.
Cost: $24.99/bottle
