Cave de Turckheim Grand Cru Brand Riesling
£23.22
Widely regarded as one of the best co-operatives in the world, Cave de Turckheim lies at the mouth of the Munster Valley. Working closely with 180 partners, its vineyards span the full breadth of Alsatian terroir and grape varieties. Cave de Turckheim only produces wine from the grapes of its member growers, it is a récoltant not a négociant. Alongside some great organic wines, the extensive range runs from the excellent value Tradition wines right through to individual Grand Cru bottlings, plus fantastic Crémants d’Alsace and Vendange Tardive dessert wines, always in Turckheim’s signature dry, yet fruit forward, style.
Archetypal Alsace Riesling; fine and dry with elegant pear and citrus fruit on the nose underpinned by hallmark petrol and toasty aromas. The palate is broader with rich fruits, a savoury saline and smoky element and a crisp, steely finish. Classically paired with seafood or, in the true spirit of Alsace, with rich pork and cheese dishes such as Choucroute or Tarte Flambée.
Tasting Note:
Elegant and dry with elegant pear and citrus fruit on the nose underpinned by hallmark petrol and toasty aromas.
