Schlumberger Riesling Kitterlé Grand Cru 2019

Smoke on the nose, then the palate opens up with real brightness — Mirabelle plum, juicy lemon, a whisper of quince. The volcanic basalt and iron-rich Triassic sandstone of Kitterlé show clearly in the stony, mouth-watering tension underneath. Muscular and taut, bone-dry, with a gorgeous grip that holds everything together.
