Wine Description:
Domaine Ostertag Heissenberg Riesling is an aromatic white wine produced by the renowned winemaker André Ostertag in the Alsace region of France. The wine is made from Riesling grapes grown in the Heissenberg vineyard. Heissenberg translates to hot mountain, and the southerly facing vineyard is well exposed to the sun resulting in ripe fruit expression and powerful wines. The winemaking process involves minimal intervention, with natural fermentation and the use of stainless steel to offer the most direct expression of the vineyard. The resulting wine is a dry and powerful Riesling with a vibrant acidity, intense minerality, and notes of citrus, peach, and floral aromas. It is a perfect match for seafood, spicy dishes, and creamy and washed-rind cheeses.
Pros:
  • Powerful style of Riesling with generous body and an oily texture

Cons:

Wine Expert Note:

This Domaine Ostertag Heissenberg Riesling is a mineral-driven and complex Riesling with a nose of white flowers and ripe citrus. On the palate, it displays flavors of white peach and pineapple, along with a hint of tangerine. The finish is crisp and clean with a hint of minerality. Enjoy this wine with seafood, grilled vegetables, or light cheeses.
