- 2012 Bott-Geyl Riesling Schoenenbourg - France, Alsace, Alsace Grand Cru (1/21/2026)
Last had this in 2023, and thought it was in the zone. It still is. The color is a little deeper, but there’s no sign of oxidation. Lovely medium-bodied Riesling with just the barest touch of sweetness to buttress the fruit. I doubt it’s any sweeter than a lot of German GG wines. Beautifully balanced, and a pleasure with or without food. Wish I could still find these wines. The disappearance of Alsatian wines from American retail shelves is a great loss.
