Very youthful, reticent. Bone dry, herby, a little spice, anise maybe. Medium intensity. This is very good but needs food and maybe even very particular food. Didn’t work as well with scallops in a pickled cucumber and lime sauce compared to neufchâtel cheese. It even worked better than expected with a very strong Dijon mustard cheese (which kills every other wine). It gave it a nice sweet finish.

Tasting at Léon Beyer, Eguisheim: From 75cl in LB tasting room, Eguisheim. Oak seems rather dominant. Thicker than the 2015 entry-level Riesling, more serious (wet stones, even a hint of slate), but a bit po-faced and charmless. 15,85 EUR. 86P

Pas très long en bouche, une bonne acidité, mais le nez petrolé, wow.

Un classique, fidèle à lui-même, simple et minéral, compagnon idéal des sushis.
