2004 Albrecht Riesling Cuvee Henri (750ml)
List Price:

||||
| Robert Parker 87 | |||||
| "Named for his grandfather, Albrecht's 2004 Riesling Cuvee Henri smells of sage, almond extract, raspberry, and a hint of mothballs -- high toned and almost eaux de vie-like in its penetration. Bright and well-focused on the palate, it carries its message of herb and red fruits into a satisfyingly long, savory finish." David Schildknecht | |||||
2004 Albrecht Riesling Pfingstberg (750ml)

$37.80

||||
| Robert Parker | |||||
| "The domaine's 2004 Riesling Pfingstberg shares its high-toned, distilled fruit personality with other Albrecht Riesling cuvees, plum and almond dominating in this instance. A clear, polished, refined, analytically dry palate leads to a juicy if rather spare and brashly bright finish, tinged with fruit pit bitterness, salt and chalk." David Schildknecht | |||||

| Robert Parker 89 | |||||
| Another project of Michel Tardieu and Philippe Cambie, the 2006 Coteaux d'Aix is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, and Syrah. A well-made bistro-styled red with very deep color, loads of fruit, pepper, earth, licorice, and spice, the wine is medium-bodied, pure, and best drunk over the next 4-5 years. | |||||
| Wine- Maker Notes | |||||
| Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (55%), Grenache (35%) and Syrah (10%). Average age of vines is 20 years. Grapes are picked by hand and sorted out in small cases.They are de-stemmed, crushed and tipped into uncoated concrete tanks. After 3 to 4 days of cold maceration to extract fruit aromas, the fermentation starts naturally using indigenous yeast and last for 10 days During this period we alternate délestage with punch down to extract maximum grape potential. Once the wine finishes fermenting, the maceration process continues for approximately 10 more days. The wine is then aged for 12 month, 30% in oak barrels where the malolactic fermentation starts, 70% in uncoated concrete tank. Tasting notes The robe is garnet with purple refletion. Nose: Fresh and intense on red fruit aromas with spicy notes. Mouth: Fluid, well balanced between roundness and tanins. | |||||
