From a late-ripening, slightly north-facing plateau on Jurassic limestone at 340 meters above sea level, the lemon-colored 2021 Grasberg “La colline où pousse l’herbe” opens with fine saline terroir notes and a fine blend of stone fruits, lychees, chamomile and brioche. Elegant, slightly sweet (thanks to 38 grams per liter of residual sugar) but very mineral as well, this is a rich and fruit-intense, saline and slightly bitter white with fine tannins and a long, tart and promising finish with grapefruit bitters. This is fascinatingly complex, and it will be especially so in 10 years. 14% stated alcohol. Tasted at the domaine in April 2024.

Region

Alsace

Alsace has to be one of the most fascinating regions of France, with a history which stretches back millennia, and demonstrates perfectly the kind of blended culture that can arise from being located on the border between two enormously important, yet very different countries. Indeed, being on the border between France and Germany has resulted in Alsatian wines being something of a mix between the wines of these two countries. Riesling varietal grapes are grown in enormous quantities here, and display all of their crisp, dry complexity perfectly in the famous wines of Alsace. Alongside this typically Germanic wine, Alsatian vintners also produce plenty of Pinot Noir, Gewurztraminer, Muscat and Sauvignon Vert wines, all of which are superb when it comes to expressing the finer features of the wonderful Alsatian terroir.

The 2021 Grasberg is a blend of Riesling and Gewurztraminer from an elevated, late-ripening site of iron-rich Jurassic limestone on top of the Altenberg Grand Cru, sloping slightly north at 350 meters. A touch of tropical fruit teases with aromatic mango highlights. The palate is rounded, smooth and chock-full of fruit; mango appears again amidst the juiciest yellow peach and passion fruit. This is rich, rounded and incredibly juicy, but all tapering to a strait-laced, slightly phenolic finish that marshals this panoply of exuberant fruit into total clarity. The 40 g/L of sugar makes this into a hedonistic experience of fruit. (Off-Dry)

Winery Notes

A complex wine from Jurassic limestone terroir. Grasberg always has tension, and this initial tightness indicates a complexity that will continually express itself over time. The nose explodes with citrus peel, winter orange, and fresh mint leaves. The palate is entirely built on the acidic energy of perfectly ripe citrus fruits, giving the wine its signature vibrancy.
