Schoffit Grand Cru ‘Rangen’ Clos Saint Theobold Riesling 2020

‘Rangen has, in the past, been called “the Montrachet of Alsace”. The varieties and flavours are different, of course, but in other respects the analogy is exact: these great, complete wines are in many ways the apogee of their region and should be represented in every fine-wine collection.’ Andrew Jefford, Decanter Magazine.

Riesling makes up 40% of the Schoffit plantings in Rangen and the age of these vines now averages more than 40 years. The 2020 vintage shows tangerine and cumquat notes accented by the flint, smoke and mineral nuances that are a hallmark of the Rangen terroir. It finishes fine and dry with delicate salty edge and exceptional length. Importer’s notes.
