Description of the wine Riesling Turckheim 1996
Originating from the young vines in the Brand, this riesling benefits from the granite soil influence: a well drained and warm soil, able to produce aromatic and elegant wines. The 1996 has a good ripeness and strong acidity, explaining some roundness balancing the wine.
