Dry, acceptably stony, no reduction, good drive, fine ripeness. More salted citrus rind than stone fruit a bit of phenolic bitterness on the finish. Good, if not exemplary with mid-week choucroute. Correct and a solid value. Damming with faint praise, but I’d seek out Dirler-Cadé or Keuntz-Bas at this level. To be fair impending winter weather may be knocking the nose about. Re-buy? Maybe not. I have plenty of Alsatian Riesling kicking around in the cellar.

An Oldie but a Goodie-Tasting at Maison Trimbach (Ribeauvillé, France): Yellow. Smells like black tea. Medium body. Dry, tart stone fruit and citrus. Simple but refreshingly taut. Very good entry level cuvée.

Distinct Riesling nose. Straw. Dry. Med+ body. High acid. Balanced. Not a ton of fruit -- lemon lime, maybe mango?
