Trimbach 2020 Réserve Riesling (Alsace)
This wine has intense, savory petrol aromas that are pleasantly gritty and backed by a subtle hint of talc. It's quite savory and acidic on the palate, a mix of slate, fresh chives and lemon juice that's delicious. The long finish is reminiscent of sour apple. Serve this with a cheeseboard as both accent and palate cleanser. Layla Schlack
