Domaine Marcel Deiss Alsace Grand Cru Schlossberg

A great rarity from the Grand Cru site Schlossberg. Domaine Deiss is a superstar of the Alsace wine region and is run by Marcel's son, Jean-Michel Deiss, who manages the estate biodynamically. The Schlossberg is a complex Grand Cru of great elegance and depth. The undisputed master of the Schlossberg is the Riesling, which thrives on sandy granite soil, giving it an intense mineral character. The wine has aromas of fresh herbs, citrus fruits, and a hint of wet stone. On the palate, you can feel its energy and a special vertical structure. An outstanding wine with a lot of potential, depth, freshness, spice, and saltiness. The somewhat medieval and sacred-inspired label was developed with an artist who masters ancient techniques and pigmentations. It showcases the colors of the soil and the distinctive structure and shape of the wine.
