Riesling, “Kaefferkopf Grand Cru”

The vines’ roots plunge to the deepest faults of this Grand Cru—two south-east-facing parcels overlooking Ammerschwihr at 230 to 350, one in granitic soils and the other in sandstone—and it is from this terroir that the wine draws its unique character: a delicate nose of citrus fruits, fresh and silky on the palate, intensely mineral with a long and straight finish. It is a cheerful and lively wine which will enhance any culinary creations based around fresh or saltwater fish.
