2017 Andre Kientzler Osterberg Riesling, Alsace, France
A$57.00
Compared to the Kirchberg, the 2016 Andre Kientzler Osterberg Riesling is the move forward of the two.A racy number that is very seductive. White necatrine and pear notes on the nose, are entwined with lemon and lime. This follows onto the palate. Precise salinty and minerals on the finish. A great match with oysters.

The 2017 Riesling Grand Cru Osterberg opens with a beautiful nose that combines precise, bright Riesling flavours with the cool flavours of the marly, east-facing Osterberg terroir.
The acidity is fresh and piquant, really prominent but well integrated into the mineral texture of this pure and classic Riesling. There is great grip and precision here. The finish is pure and salty, but it also shows firm white stone fruit aromas and a stimulating phenolic grip.
This is a cool-climate classic from a classic Alsatian terroir defined as a mixture of marl, limestone and sandstone. Highly recommended.
Drink 2018-2035.
