Alsace Riesling is widely respected; dry and steely in its youth, bottle age will broaden out its character.
Despite the historical Germanic influence, Alsace Riesling tends to have nearly all of the sugars fermented out giving a drier and fuller bodied wine that theRhine counterparts.
Klipfel’s Riesling vineyards extend between the Lower Rhine to the Upper Rhine, between the Vosges and the Alsace Plain, from Marlenheim in the north to Thann in the south: in total 120 km in length and 4 km in width.
