Riesling Grand Cru Schlossberg - Domaine Bott-Geyl

It was the first Grand Cru vineyard in Alsace (80 hectares) and Riesling is the King, as it was centuries ago. Most of the vines face due south. The terroir of the very steep slope of Schlossberg are on a crystalline mineral of granite from the basement of the Vosges Mountains, with sandstone and shale from the Devonian period.
The result is great Rieslings with richly floral scents, finesse and crystalline acidity balanced with great charm.
