Domaine Zind-Humbrecht Alsace Riesling 2020: A Captivating Dry White Experience

Discover the elegance of Alsace with this exceptional 2020 Dry Riesling from the revered Domaine Zind-Humbrecht. Crafted from meticulously tended biodynamic grapes, this wine beautifully challenges expectations of dry Riesling, offering generous fruit without excessive leanness.

Prepare for a vibrant sensory journey. The palate unfolds with a luscious flow of ripe Mirabelle plum and succulent stone fruits, harmoniously balanced by refreshing citrus zest and subtle bergamot nuances. An intriguing savory layer emerges – hints of bitter almond, fresh tarragon, and a distinct mineral salinity – adding captivating complexity to its light-to-medium body. This textural richness, described as beautifully pithy, leads to a perfectly dry, intense, and mouthwatering finish that lingers gracefully, reminiscent of a refreshing summer breeze.
