Zind Humbrecht 2021 Riesling Roche Roulee 750ml

The 2021 Riesling Roche Roulée is from plots around the flatter parts of Turckheim that have a lot of large, round pebbles called galets; they are glacial deposits with some clay on well-drained soils. The nose is wonderfully flinty with promising reduction. The palate is dry, rather serene and round. Subtle flavors of sun-ripened Mirabelle skin appear on the mid-palate, then tapers to a long, taut lemon finish. The bone-dry lemon zestiness has a long echo. (Bone-dry)
