Domaine Gross – Riesling 2015 – Vendanges tardives – Alsace

The nose is aromatic, fruity, well-balanced, quite fine and offers a fine juiciness. It reveals notes of quenette, crystallized lemon and peach in syrup combined with a hint of candied pineapple, crystallized tangerine, honey and a touch of almond / muesli. The palate is fruity, beautifully built, aerial and offers a beautiful balance, a fine juiciness, precision, a small tension, a beautiful definition as well as a fine mineral frame. On the palate this wine expresses notes of candied apple and fleshy peach associated with small notes of crystallized citrus, roasted pineapple, a hint of mirabelle plum as well as subtle hints of white flowers, dried apricot, honey and almond. Good length.
