Riesling, Clos Hauserer--Vintage 1996
Alsace, Zind-Humbrecht
In original carton
"Readers who love the minerality in addition to the sometimes searing acidity of a grand cru Chablis will get a thrill from the 1996 Riesling Clos Hauserer. This outstanding Riesling represents the essence of minerals. With its petroleum-like nose and flavors, this wine is like drinking liquid stones. Unevolved, but intense, dry, and "serious," this is a wine for passionate connoisseurs as it will take several years to evolve. An exceptional effort for the vintage, it is a candidate for 10-12+ years of aging." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, #119 (Oct 1998)
