These Herrenwerg vineyards are based in the Fetch Valley, on a mixture of diverse soil - limestone, granite, gravel, marl and sandstone - created during glacial shifts in the nearby Vosges mountains. Grapes are gently pressed and the juice clarified in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then fermented in temperature controlled tanks for 10-14 days.
Cave de Turckheim Riesling ‘Sables et Galets’ is a very fruity and approachable style of Riesling, the driest of the Alsace grape varieties. 'Sables et Galets' is grown on sandy ('sables') , stony ('galets') terroir. A very approachable, generous style of Riesling. Its rich, round fruit, is reminiscent of yellow and red apples with a twist of lime and a luscious, dry finish.
Pair with fish, scallops or white meat. Riesling is arguably the best white wine to accompany even the spiciest of Thai and Indian cuisine, as it copes with the strong flavours yet complements them at the same time.
Please note that all case deals can take between 7-10 days for delivery.
