Riesling “Vieilles Vignes” 2020 Gruss
The Riesling “Vieilles Vignes” 2020 from Gruss Winery is a refined and mineral-driven white wine that exemplifies the elegance of Alsace Riesling. Made from old vines ranging from 25 to 80 years, the grapes grow on well-drained soils with optimal sun exposure, ensuring perfectly balanced ripening and exceptional quality.
In the glass, the wine shows a light straw-yellow color with green highlights, clear and bright. The nose is fine yet striking, offering delicate floral aromas combined with citrus notes of grapefruit and lemon, layered over subtle minerality. The bouquet is complex and elegant, reflecting the distinctive character of Alsace terroir.
On the palate, the Vieilles Vignes 2020 is dry, elegant, and well-structured, with a mineral backbone that supports every sip. The fruit is refined, complemented by balanced acidity and freshness, resulting in a harmonious and persistent finish. Its complexity and finesse make it a truly expressive Alsace Riesling.
This wine pairs perfectly with sauerkraut, white meats, and freshwater fish, such as trout baked in parchment. The fermentation in stainless steel followed by maturation on fine lees enhances the body and complexity without compromising the wine’s lightness, a hallmark of Rieslings from this region.
The Riesling “Vieilles Vignes” 2020 is a testament to Gruss’s commitment to quality, vineyard care, and terroir expression, delivering a wine with character, elegance, and mineral freshness. A classic Alsace Riesling, ideal for those who appreciate subtlety and precision in a white wine.
