Description of the wine Riesling Herrenweg de Turckheim 1998
The age of this vineyard (50 years old) and the precocious gravelly soil of the Herrenweg helped to produce a very aromatic and seductive wine. The 1998 is totally dry, again after a long fermentation, but has an elegant, delicate and open structure. This wine is already showing a lot of flavours and represent very well the riesling grape.
