The 2022 Riquewihr from Domaine Marcel Deiss is a masterful blend of Pinot Gris and Riesling, reflecting the estate’s commitment to biodynamic farming and natural winemaking. With its complex aroma of apricot, pear, orange zest, and earthy undertones, this Alsatian wine delivers a full-bodied, rich texture balanced by high acidity. Exceptional quality shines through with its long, intricate finish, leaving a memorable impression. Perfect for those who appreciate wines with depth and character, this wine will age beautifully for decades.

The Pinot 2023 from Domaine Ostertag offers an exceptional representation of Alsace's Pinot family, a group of closely related grape varieties. With a pale lemon colour and green hues, this wine delivers an aromatic bouquet of apple, pear, nectarine, vanilla, and clove, enhanced by well-integrated oak. On the palate, it is round and oily with intense flavours of stone fruits, grass, and sweet spices, balanced by medium-plus acidity. The medium-length finish leaves a satisfying impression, making it an ideal wine to enjoy now, especially paired with chicken spaghetti.

Crémant d'Alsace, established in 1976, is France's second-largest sparkling wine category, following Champagne. Produced using the méthode traditionnelle, it undergoes a secondary fermentation and at least nine months of lees ageing, imparting a toasty, nutty complexity. Domaine Armand Gilg’s Crémant D’Alsace Extra Brut presents a pale lemon colour with persistent bubbles and a creamy palate of apricot, lemon, and ripe apple. Its vibrant acidity, long finish, and complexity make it a versatile wine, ideal for pairing with seafood and light appetisers. Scored 92/100, this Chardonnay-based sparkling wine is a fantastic choice for both immediate enjoyment and cellaring until 2030.
