Wet stone and struck flint open into bright citrus and white peach, jasmine threads and a saline core that cuts clean and persistent – the palate is electric with tight acidity, mineral drive and a citrus peel bitterness that lengthens gently. Weinbach Alsace Altenbourg Riesling 2023 shows striking focus and clarity.

Domaine Weinbach’s Altenbourg single-vineyard identity is unmistakable – steep, granitic soils in Alsace yield a precise, terroir-driven Riesling that balances intensity with poise and cellar potential. This Weinbach Alsace Altenbourg Riesling 2023 feels cultivated yet elemental, a collector’s-worthy expression of place and vintage.

Serve chilled with butter-poached shellfish, miso-glazed fish or aged goat cheeses at a simple, sunlit table for maximum impact; pairs beautifully with tasting menus and celebratory dinners. Buy confidently for immediate pleasure or medium-term ageing – an assured purchase for sommeliers and lovers of mineral Riesling.
