A wine to drink without restraint. This wine has a nice richness, made from old vines, this nectar offers great complexity and a lot of elegance. The residual sugars are low, around 4g / l, allowing a good balance.Very expressive nose upon opening. The glass explodes the candied citrus fruit with a slightly exotic touch. Then it's around the white fruits to express themselves and mineral notes. On the palate, there is more relief than on the Théo cuvée with a natural fat which makes this juice more fleshy. Slightly tangy finish, very palatable.

About this wine
Domaine Weinbach is a family-owned winery located in the heart of Alsace, France. The estate has a rich history dating back to the 17th century when it was founded by Capuchin monks. Today, the winery is run by the Faller family, who have been producing exceptional wines for generations.
Their Riesling is a standout wine, known for its complexity and balance. The Cuvée Colette is a particularly special vintage, named after the family matriarch. It is made from grapes grown in the Grand Cru Schlossberg vineyard, which is known for its steep slopes and mineral-rich soil. The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged on its lees for several months, resulting in a wine with a rich texture and intense aromas of citrus and stone fruit.
Domaine Weinbach is committed to sustainable farming practices, using only organic and biodynamic methods in their vineyards. This dedication to the environment is reflected in the quality of their wines, which are known for their purity and expression of terroir.
If you are looking for a high-quality Riesling with a rich history and a commitment to sustainability, look no further than Domaine Weinbach's Cuvée Colette.
