The bouquet of this great dry riesling is like an essence of golden stone fruits, yet it remains delicate and charming. Stunning concentration and brilliance on the very focused medium-bodied palate. After the first wave of peachy and apricot character comes another of blood orange and Amalfi lemon. So much wet stony minerality! From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink or hold.

What a beautifully delicate touch from attack to finish, expressed in rosewood, white flower, fresh herbs, linden tea, jasmine and lime. Such aromatic complexity, which includes appealing smoky notes, leading to a suave richness on the medium-bodied palate. A refined wine.

The 2021 Riesling Schlossberg Grand Cru has a tender, shy nose that allows the pale lemon lift to escape. The palate is beautifully lemony, edged with fresh, young crushed young leaves of yarrow and imbued with a deep saltiness. The freshness is serene yet pervasive, colonizing the mind with its citrus and lemon peel insistence. This is taut, linear, yet so juicy on the surface, cheating the hard granite with its playfulness. But underneath, it's profound, serious, hard and clean-cut. Wonderful. (Bone-Dry)

The 2021 Riesling Schlossberg is fresh and pure yet also intense on the complex, spicy and iodine-inflected nose. Rich yet savory on the palate, this is a very intense yet complex and tightly structured Riesling with a long, persistently saline finish. This is a great 2021 Riesling! Natural cork.

Schlossbergs sandede, granitholdige jorde er utvivlsomt et af Alsaces mest overbevisende terroirs for riesling, og når det er bedst, er der tale om længelevende, majestætisk vin, der sjældent overgås i præcision og mineralsk elegance. Et flydende monument, der kan bide skeer med de største af slagsen, og lige netop Weinbach-familien er mesteren på denne store grand cru. 2021’eren er stadig en anelse sky på næsen, den er slet ikke klar, Schlossberg har typisk brug for at slumre i nogle år, før den er klar til at vise, hvad den er lavet af, men man fornemmer den kalejdoskopiske tropefrugt, de blomstrende nuancer og det tydelige strejf af røg og våde sten. Smagen har en genial friskhed og balance anført af en perfekt indbunden frugtsyre, det må være årgangen, der sætter sig igennem her, og en herligt insisterende længde og cremet, salt intensitet ved siden af al det frugtige blodappelsinerne og nektarinen. Fornem vin, som forståeligt nok også er blevet ganske kostbar med årene.
