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:

Domaine Zind Humbrecht ranks amongst the finest producers in all of Alsace. Clos Windsbuhl is a unique site. Formerly owned by a widow, this site was never registered as a Grand Cru, despite its obvious quality, on the advice of the tenanted farmer who did not want to have to pay more for the grapes. Certified biodynamic, Clos Windsbuhl produces grapes with impressive ripeness and purity of flavor. This wine is emblematic of the broad and rich style of Riesling produced in Alsace and the attention to detail of the Zind Humbrecht estate.
