Life is too short to drink bad wine

Bone dry Pinot Blanc by Martin Schaetzel. Crispy and aromatic wine with flavors of spice, lime and green fruit. Good acidity and nice mineral finish. Surprisingly nice wine made from old Pinot Blanc vines which is also called Auxerrois. Pinot Blanc Vielles Vignes 2010 Martin Schaetzel

Had this 6 year old Riesling at Chez Yvonne restaurant in Strasbourg. Lovely smell of petroleum and demi sweet taste with nice acidty and balance. Perfect with the local foie gras. Alsace Steingrubler Riesling 2007 Francois Barmes Dangerous stuff...

Another Riesling by Boxler but slightly older. This time from the Grand cry vineyard called Sommerberg. Same medium lemon-green colour , but with a nose with more smell of petroleum smell as well as citrus and green fruit. The taste is packed with fruit and has perhaps slightly less acidity than the 2006. Long, seductive finish with a very good balance. Alsace Grand cru "Sommerberg" 2004 Albert Boxler A great Riesling

Clear medium lemon-green color. A great floral nose with delicate citrus fruit and some petroleum notes. Big fruity body with perfect acidity and a lovely long finish. A very nice Grand cru (Brand) from Alsace made bu Albert Boxler. Perfect with seafood and sushi. Alsace Grand cru Brand 2006 Albert Boxler Elegant, fruity and lovely balance

Typical Riesling from Alsace with some devloped petroleum on the nose. Fruity dry taste with hints of minerality. Perfect with sushi or seafood dishes. Riesling Viellies Vignes by Jean Sipp

This is a very basic but good Riesling from Alsace in France. Hugel is a big producer with many different wines. The wine has a lovely minerality and smell of ripe green apples. The acidity is good as well as the balanced dry taste. It is a kind wine that goes with most white fish, bird, cheese and seafood. Due to the kind acidity it can also be enjoyed as an aperitif.

If you come across a wine made by Zind Humbrecht in Alsace just buy it. All the wines from this domain are of great quality so you will never be disappointed but be prepared to pay. Low yields, late picking and biodynamic create wines worth dying for. So also this Riesling Turckheim from 2007. Pale yellow/green colour and a lovely nose with apples, yellow plum, flowers and minerals. Dry wine with lots of fruit and a lovely mineral touch. Rich with great acidity. Lovely. Riesling Turckheim 2007, medium price 260, an elegant Riesling by Zind Humbrecht. Domaine Zind-Humbrecht
