Turckheim

2006 Alsace Riesling

The Global Wine Company Turckheim Riesling from the 2006 vintage is a fantastic expression of the Alsace region, known for its exceptional white wines. This delightful Riesling showcases a medium body that harmoniously balances its bright, high acidity, contributing to a refreshing and lively profile. The fruit intensity is prominent, offering tantalizing notes of ripe stone fruit and zesty citrus, inviting you to savor each sip. Its well-structured mouthfeel reveals subtle hints of minerality, a hallmark of the terroir, while remaining dry, making it an ideal companion to a variety of dishes. This wine beautifully reflects the elegance and complexity that Alsace is celebrated for.

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.
