Brand Vieilles Vignes

2010 Alsace Riesling

Zind-Humbrecht's Vieilles Vignes Riesling from the 2010 vintage is a remarkable expression of the Alsace region, showcasing a beautifully complex balance of flavors. This full-bodied white wine boasts a bright acidity that invigorates the palate, while the prominent fruit intensity reveals notes of ripe peach, apricot, and hints of zesty citrus. With its dryness, this Riesling exemplifies the hallmark characteristics of the varietal, offering a refreshing and mouthwatering experience. The subtle, well-integrated structure of the wine contributes to its wonderful aging potential, making it not only delightful upon release but also capable of evolving gracefully over time. Enjoy it alongside a variety of dishes or savor it on its own for an exquisite tasting experience.

France

While it was not the first country to master winemaking, no other country has determined the course of wine and wine culture as much as France. From the sparkling wines of Champagne to the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of Burgundy; from Bordeaux's sumptuous blends to Alsace's Riesling; and from the Loire Valley's Sauvignon Blancs to exciting new regions like Pays d'Oc in the south, France has given the world nearly all the major styles and grape varieties that dominate what we drink today. There are numerous reasons why France and wine are so inextricably linked, but perhaps the foremost is geography. Few places can rival France's unique array of hot and cool-climate regions and the abundant maritime influences and mountainous terrain found throughout the country.
