Domaine Rieflé 2018 Steinert Grand Cru Riesling (Alsace)
The pervasive, juicy freshness of a still-tart Golden Delicious apple plays on the nose of this wine and continues on the vivid, slightly spicy palate. There is ripe roundness here, but also vivid apple freshness, accentuated by white-pepper notions. The body is flowingly smooth and the finish is appetizing and dry. Anne Krebiehl MW
