Riesling Grand Cru Schoenenbourg AOC Alsace Cave Vinicole de Hunawihr, 2020

The best vineyard sites in Alsace are the Grands Crus. These are generally situated on the eastern foothills of the Vosges Mountains mid-slope between 200 to 400 metres with good sun exposure on a diverse range of soils. Immediately approachable, Schoenenbourg 2020 Riesling has intense aromas of limes, honey and nectarines. More lime and green apple flavours dominate the palate with a lingering crisp green apple finish. Delicious to drink now, it can also be cellared. Schoenenbourg vineyards are on a steep slope between 260 and 380 metres to the south of Hunawihr, close to Riquewihr village.
