2018 Gustave Lorentz Riesling G.C. Altenberg de Bergheim 0,75 Liter

The Gustave Lorentz Riesling G.C. Altenberg de Bergheim 2018 is a stunning dry Riesling from Alsace’s Grand Cru Altenberg de Bergheim vineyard. Grown on clay-limestone soils, this 2018 vintage displays a pale gold hue and a vibrant nose of green apple, citrus zest, and white flowers, with hints of petrol and minerality. On the palate, it is crisp and precise, with a concentrated fruit core, racy acidity, and a steely mineral backbone, culminating in a long, dry finish. Biodynamically produced, this wine reflects Lorentz’s commitment to terroir and sustainability. Perfect with seafood, Alsatian dishes, or aged cheeses, it offers elegance and versatility. With good aging potential, it will evolve over the next 10-15 years, developing richer, more complex flavors. This Riesling is a testament to the quality of Alsace’s Grand Cru sites and Lorentz’s winemaking expertise.
