Baltasis sausas
The area of this vineyard is over 33 hectares at about 220 to 270 metres altitude, facing south-southeast. The soil has chalk with magnesium and chalk in stones, which give the wine a fine smooth, supple acidity.
Hints of ripe, red apple have a gorgeous lift that combines yarrow, chamomile and dried lemon peel. The palate of this wine then expands from its precise, compact body into a cloud of aromas. It's juicy with apple and citrus, the wine's stony depth notwithstanding.
Served at 10-12 °C with seafood, grilled salmon, hake.
Plenty of ripe stone-fruit aromas and some flint character give this generous and creamy Alsace dry riesling stacks of personality. Riesling freaks may feel that this is a bit on the soft side at the finish, but we feel this unusual style shows appealing harmony. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.
Jean-Christophe Bott is heir to the family tradition dating back to 1795, when his ancestor, Jean-Martin Geyl tended his vines and made his wine. Jean-Christophe Bott has been responsible for Domaine Bott-Geyl since 1993 and he converted the vineyards to be organic in 2000 and then biodynamic in 2002. In the vineyards he concentrates on low yields and in the cellars he oversees the vinification in the most natural and minimalist manner. The whole art is to bring together tradition and modernity, to perpetuate the vignoble for posterity and to protect its ecology.
