Simonis – Riesling Clos des Chats 2015 – Alsace

The nose is fruity, fresh and slightly concentrated. It reveals notes of lemon, apple and slight notes of vine peach associated with a discreet hint of zests and lemon tree flowers/white flowers. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, fat and offers unctuosity, a slight acid frame, a beautiful “guideline”, a certain purity, gourmandise as well as a slight bright side. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of lemon, ripe vine peach and slight hints of brugnon associated with a discreet hint of passion fruit. Good length and gourmnad persistence. There is a subtle hint of vanilla on the finish/persistence.
