Zind Humbrecht 2022 Riesling "Sommerberg" Grand Cru 750ml

The 2022 Sommerberg Niedermorschwihr Riesling opens super aromatic, finely saline and slightly flinty on the nose that is reminiscent of a fruit salad in a granite bowl. Full-bodied and lush on the palate, this is a textural, very fine, round and juicy-elegant Riesling with rather smooth acidity yet fine bitters and tannins and a saline finish. Due to hail, only 27 hectoliters per hectare could be harvested. 12.8% alcohol. Natural cork.
