Lucien Albrecht Riesling Grand Cru Ollwiller

Description

Riesling Grand Cru Ollwiller is a refined and expressive Alsatian white wine from one of the region’s oldest and most prestigious terroirs, located near Wuenheim at the foot of the Vosges foothills. Grown on distinctive marl-sandstone soils, this historic Grand Cru vineyard imparts exceptional finesse, minerality, and complexity to the wine. It displays a shimmering pale yellow color with silver highlights, leading into a precise and elegant nose layered with mineral notes, citrus peel, mandarin, and stone fruit such as plum. On the palate, it opens with a fresh, vibrant attack, followed by a subtle balance of gentle bitterness, bright acidity, and long-lasting persistence. Well-structured and beautifully balanced, this Riesling pairs effortlessly with fish in sauce, poultry with citrus accents, goat cheese, or delicate seafood such as scallops.
