A beautiful citrus and orchard-fruit nose with the classic Riesling whisper of petrol, plus white flowers and a stony mineral edge. On the palate it is dry and precise — lemon, lime and quinine over the Mandelberg’s limestone-marl backbone — well balanced, with a round mouthfeel, electric acidity and a long, deep citrus finish. An elegant, age-worthy Alsace Riesling; enjoy over the next decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNotes\u003c\/b\u003e: 100% Riesling from the Mandelberg Grand Cru, a steep, south-facing slope named for its almond trees (“Mandelberg” = almond mountain), whose marl and limestone soils give Riesling both power and finesse. Hand-harvested, slow cool fermentation, extended lees aging and bottling without filtration. The 2022 vintage in Alsace was warm and generous, with ripeness balanced by the site’s natural acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFood Pairing\u003c\/b\u003e: Excellent with choucroute, roast pork, rich fish like salmon or turbot, Thai curry, and aged Comté or Münster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWinery Story\u003c\/b\u003e: Domaine Specht is a family estate in Mittelwihr, in the heart of Alsace, where the Spechts have farmed vines for generations. From the storied slopes of the Mandelberg — one of the region’s 51 Grands Crus — they craft pure, site-driven Riesling in the traditional dry Alsace style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Dechaunac Wine Imports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50644465451265,"sku":"3760197880133","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0149\/9247\/4212\/files\/riesling-grand-cru-mandelberg.jpg?v=1791553499","url":"https:\/\/arrowine.com\/products\/domaine-specht-riesling-grand-cru-mandelberg-2022","provider":"Arrowine \u0026 Cheese","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
