A stunner of a Vendanges Tardives, certainly not as unctuous as a Sauternes, the Weinbach Alsace Grand Cru Mambourg offers that rare combination of power and delicacy, tenderness and concentration. On the nose, apricot and white peach notes are cradled in orange blossom, granulated honey and spice. On the palate, supple creaminess, and lots of nuance that gently, slowly unfurls. It’s clean, beautifully crafted with minerality surfacing on the finish along with classic Gewürztraminer spiciness. Sample
