The Marcel Deiss Schoenenbourg Grand Cru 2012 is an exquisite field blend from Alsace, crafted from a co-planted vineyard of traditional varieties like Riesling, Gewürztraminer, and Pinot Gris. Grown in the marl and gypsum-rich soils of the Schoenenbourg vineyard, this 2012 vintage displays a golden hue and a captivating nose of candied lemon, rose petal, honey, and exotic spices, with a pronounced mineral edge. On the palate, it is rich and concentrated, with a harmonious balance of fruit, acidity, and residual sweetness, culminating in a long, textured finish. Biodynamically produced, this wine reflects Deiss’ commitment to expressing terroir, showcasing the complexity of this Grand Cru site. It pairs beautifully with spicy dishes, foie gras, or aged cheeses, offering a luxurious and versatile experience. With over a decade of aging, it is at its peak, with potential for further evolution over the next 5-10 years.
