Zind Humbrecht Riesling Roche Volcanique 2023

Smoky and quietly complex on the nose, with pear and a subtle yeasty undercurrent. The palate is where this really sings, fluid, seamless, and coiled with fruit that hasn't fully shown its hand yet. A breath of air pulls out bergamot and bright citrus, underscoring the remarkable cohesion. From the upper, shallower soils of Grand Cru Rangen de Thann, this is bone-dry and built to reward patience.
