  This is a belter of a wine! Although not officially a Grand Cru vineyard this is unquestionably of Grand Cru quality. In every department this is a big wine; on the nose there's exotic fruit aromas and on the palate there's melon, yellow fruits and a dollop of spiciness thrown in. Enormously rich, complex, concentrated, medium sweet and almost oily in texture this is not an Alsace for the faint hearted. It's also big on the alcohol content, weighing in at a weighty 14.5% with 22g/l residual sugar. Estimated maturity: 2016 to who can tell? This could chug along nicely for years.
