Kirrenbourg Riesling Grand Cru Brand 2018
The new pearl of Alsace: domaine Kirrenbourg. The ambitious team led by winemaker Samuel Tottoli has been working hard in recent years to make wines that can compete with the absolute top of Alsace, and often even surpass them. The vineyards are rigorously biodynamic. In terms of winemaking, spontaneous fermentations and slow maturations are chosen that let the grape and the terroir speak for themselves.
This grand cru Brand is among the best that the domain makes. Enormous depth, length and a very long storage potential. And Decanter judged that in this vintage this is one of the best Grand Cru Rieslings.
