Riesling AOC Alsace


See Riesling AOC Alsace producers See a list of Riesling AOC Alsace wines

Riesling is the undisputed king of Alsace grapes, covering 22.5% of the vineyard area and producing some of the noblest and most age-worthy wines in the region-including Vendage Tardive, Selection de Grains Nobles, and Grand Crus.

Dry, refined, and delicately fruity, it has an elegant bouquet of citrus fruit with mineral or floral notes. A typical mature Alsace Riesling is bone dry, with steely acidity and complex mineral / flint aromas. Like its German counterpart, it displays a superb definition of flavours, but with more concentration and alcohol.

It thrives on schist, shale and slate soils that convey oily, petrolly, mineral aromas to the wine.

From a fine vintage, Andre Ostertag's Heissenberg vineyard in the village of Nothalten (Bas-Rhin) literally means 'hot mountain' on account of its hot 250-280 metre south-facing granite, sandstone, tufa soils tucked up behind the village church. The result is a rich yet incisive wine; broad yet ... MORE

As cool as a cucumber, Clos Hauserer's limestone-rich soils make it one of Olivier's most minerally wines. The nose brims with chalky floral notes and limey purity while the palate shows such linearity, such 'droiteur', with only 15 grams/litre of residual sugar. Clos Häuserer is one of ... MORE

The superbly-concentrated 2002 Riesling Frederic Emile is now on the market – still a touch austere, but with strikingly refined complexity and sheer mineral mass. Broth-like carnal and chalky traits here put one in mind of Chablis. Here is a wine to strain through your teeth, and one ... MORE
