🌟 A mineral-driven Alsace Riesling—precise, vibrant, and full of finesse.

👁 In the Glass:
Pale straw with silvery glints—crisp and luminous.

👃 On the Nose:
Fresh and elegant, with aromas of lime zest, green apple, and white peach. Underlying notes of flint, wild herbs, and citrus blossom speak to its mineral-laden terroir.

👅 On the Palate:
Linear and focused, with zesty citrus, tart orchard fruit, and a stony, chalky backbone. Lively acidity adds tension, while the finish is clean, dry, and refreshingly persistent.

🍽 Food Pairing:
Ideal with fresh seafood, goat cheese, tarte flambée, or sushi. A classic partner for light, zesty dishes with a touch of acidity.

Ageing Potential:
Delicious in its youth, yet capable of ageing 5–8 years to develop deeper nuance and complexity.

Why You’ll Love It:
‘Marnes et Calcaires’ reflects the heart of Alsace Riesling—dry, racy, and terroir-transparent. A wine of clarity and charm, equally at home on a sunny terrace or a white tablecloth.
