There is nothing more satisfying than drinking the perfectly balanced Riesling. It is rare to find Rieslings that are not cloyingly sweet, but producers like Zind Humbrecht have perfected the balance between residual sugar and acidity. Like many Alsatian wines, Zind Humbrecht is all about aroma, with enticing floral and fruit notes like lilies, peaches, and pineapples that are refreshingly tantalizing. If you have not yet had the pleasure of tasting the scarce balance wines that Zind Humbrecht possess, now is your chance!

Tasting Notes

WA97
"If there can ever be a perfect vintage for a vineyard, 2000 was that way for Brand," said Olivier Humbrecht. He added that the 2000 Riesling Brand "is like the 1989 or 1998 yet not as sweet and with additional richness, acidity, and botrytis." Its exuberant nose displays poached pears, white peaches, liquid minerals, and apricots. On the palate, this medium to full-bodied wine is immensely rich, ample, and plump. Layers of tea-laced minerals vie with copious white fruits for the taster`s attention. Intricately laced, its powerful character lasts throughout its exceedingly long finish. This prodigious wine will be at its best between 2007 and 2020.
