Tasting note
Wonderfully deep, enticing aromas of candied lemons, lime marmalade, quince, pineapple, chamomile and honey. The satisfyingly rich texture is freshened by zesty acidity and enlivened by intriguing notes of beeswax, pine forest, pineapple and lemon. This wealth of fruit character creates an impression of sweetness, however it is in fact pretty much bone dry.
In the press
97/100 - This great dry Alsace riesling has hugely generous, irresistible aromas of fresh and candied citrus fruit, together with white and yellow peaches. Very chalky and concentrated on the medium- to full-bodied palate. The very long, deeply structured finish makes it plain that this masterpiece is just beginning to give its best! From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.
96/100 - The 2019 Riesling Frédéric Emile is precise and savory on the nose, blending the ripe and intense fruit of the Geisberg with a rather coolish and purely mineral or rocky tone of the Osterberg (?) that is reminiscent of melting salts. Tight and with lots of tannins on the palate, this is a full-bodied, highly energetic and vivacious Riesling with a long and tensioned as well as complex finish that pairs the ripe and dense fruit with structural elements to create something new and impressive. It's very long and saline yet still too tight to be opened today.
Food Match
Delicious with fish, poultry and veal and sea scallops. Traditionally served in Alsace with goose and pork and with Alsacian meats.
