Riesling Grand Cru 'Schoenenbourg Gypse' Schaal 2023

Julien Schaal's Riesling Grand Cru 'Schoenenbourg Gypse' is produced on the chalky slopes of Riquewihr, a terroir also celebrated by Voltaire. Fermentation is spontaneous and ageing takes place exclusively in steel, to enhance the fragrant and fresh soul of the grape variety. The nose reveals intertwining aromas of lime blossom, peach and flint, while the palate reveals a full body and vibrant freshness that accompanies a long savoury note on the finish. Perfect with spicy dishes such as fish tagine

RIESLING GRAND CRU 'SCHOENENBOURG GYPSE' SCHAAL 2023 DESCRIPTION

Colour

Straw yellow with golden reflections

Scent

White flowers such as jasmine and lime blossom, ripe fruits such as peach and grapefruit, and light smoky nuances

Taste

It displays a vibrant, tense and vertical freshness, with a clean and very savoury taste

Temperature
10°-12°C
When to open
To enjoy an artisanal wine at its best, we recommend you to let it 'breathe' at least 15-30 minutes before serving
When to drink
Wine good to drink now, but that can have a beautiful evolution after resting for a while in your cellar
Glass
Medium open goblet
Perfect for young and medium bodied white wines which don't require excessive oxygenation to open. The opening, slightly tighter than the body of the glass, favors the concentration of aromas towards the nose, enhancing the perception of aromas and limiting the dispersion
Longevity
You can leave it to age in the cellar for over 10 years
