Schieferkopf Lieu-Dit Berg Riesling Sélection Parcellaire 2021
The remarkable Schieferkopf Lieu-Dit Berg Riesling Sélection Parcellaire comes from a unique single vineyard, where the vines grow directly into rare blue slate rock. Produced under the guidance of famed Rhône winemaker Michel Chapoutier, the wine is a selection parcellaire, meaning the grapes are harvested exclusively from one designated plot of old vines. This unique stony terrain shapes a remarkably focused, deep Alsace dry white wine built entirely around pure fruit clarity and structural elegance. This is a beautifully crisp, lively white wine that hits the palate with brilliant energy. It is packed with bright, direct flavours of fresh lime juice, green apple, and white peach, alongside a distinct, smoky hint of flint. That vibrant citrus core is balanced by a clean, mouth-watering finish that completely refreshes the palate, making it a spectacular partner for a Sunday roast pork belly, simply grilled white fish, or a tangy goat's cheese tart.
