WOLFBERGER "Signature" 2022 - Riesling - Alsace - France
WOLFBERGER "Signature" - Riesling - Alsace - France
With fresh notions of apple juice and fresh apple peel, this Riesling offers a good aromatic and refined intensity. While it has aromatic and citrus hints of lemon and grapefruit, the palate follows a straightforward and yet softer than expected experience of balance and a textured dryness that is very clean and almost taut.
