Bott Geyl, Alsace Grand Cru Riesling Furstentum, 2017
🏰 Bott Geyl is a renowned biodynamic producer, and their Alsace Grand Cru Riesling Furstentum 2017 is a testament to their commitment to expressing terroir. The Furstentum Grand Cru is known for producing powerful and aromatic Rieslings. The 2017 vintage, while not as widely documented as some, generally yielded wines with good concentration and freshness. Expect this wine to offer 【intense aromas of ripe citrus, white flowers, and a distinctive mineral backbone, with a hint of honeyed richness developing with age】. The palate should be vibrant and complex, with a long, saline finish.
🍴 This expressive Riesling is incredibly food-friendly. It pairs wonderfully with rich seafood like scallops or grilled prawns, roasted pork loin, or even mildly spicy Asian dishes such as Thai green curry or Vietnamese spring rolls. It also complements goat cheese or aged Comté.
🥂 An excellent choice for a sophisticated lunch, a special seafood dinner, or a gathering where a complex and aromatic white wine is desired. Its intensity and structure also make it suitable for cellaring for several more years.
