Elitistreview

A wine drank recently that similarly tickled my lovely bits as did the Boxler was one I failed to write up here. I provide the name as a recommendation as something affordable to look out for: Riesling Grand Cru Pfersigberg Vieille Vigne 2001 from Domaine Bruno Sorg. This was an excellent dry, stylish and direct wine that slightly challenges the limits of my stomach’s acid tolerance, but I bloody love it. It is a fine wine by any definition. If you are aware of Trimbach’s Cuvée Frédéric Emile Riesling this is remarkably similar: very linear, direct and focused, but with plenty of concentration and a hint of fat to keep one charmed. Lovely stuff and I have a case in my cellar!
