Becker – Riesling 2015 – Kronenburg – Alsace

The nose is fruity, elegant, well-balanced, slightly tight and offers a slight gourmandise. It reveals notes of yellow peach and Williams pear associated with subtle hints of flint, quenette / exotic fruits as well as an imperceptible touch of spices / nutmeg. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, gourmande, fine, straight, beautifully elegant and offers a good definition, a slight fat, a slight acid frame as well as tension. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fleshy vine peach, passion fruits and slight notes of quenette, passion fruits associated with a slight touch of ripe mandarine, a discreet hint of lychee, sweet grapefruit as well as a very discreet hint of almond (in the background). Good length and good persistence.
