Tasting Notes
Pale straw yellow colour. The nose is bright and reveals a beautiful panoply of fruity aromas as well as lime blossom. This early character and already quite open style is also found on the palate. The loamy-gravelly terroir of Turckheim produces expressive wines in their youth and the sunny climate of 2020 will have built a charming, expressive and intense wine. The attack on the palate is supple, caressing but firms up on the finish, revealing a ripe and structuring acidity. Beautiful saline finish that lingers on with an attractive fruity profile. Although already very expressive, this wine will age well.

Scores
91 / 100"This energetic, ripe white packs apricot and nectarine notes that show beautiful fruit purity. Powered by crushed stone minerality and pink grapefruit–laced acidity, this has a medium-weight palate marked by dried green herbs and salted lemon rind."
