Lot presentation

Alsace Riesling Vendanges Tardives Zind-Humbrecht (Domaine) Brand 2006

The wine

Silken and sumptiuous, this Riesling Vendanges Tardives from Domaine Zind-Humbrecht combines structure, fleshiness and opulence without becoming heavy. It has a concentrated robe, revealing a complex bouquet of ripe candied fruits with toasted notes and a wonderful persistence in the mouth. Cellar for several years to develop its full complex profle.

About the Producer Zind-Humbrecht

Zind Humbrecht was created in 1959 as a result of the merger of the wine producing operations of the Humbrecht family in Gueberschwihr and the Zind family in Wintzenheim. The Humbrechts are a very old wine-making family, who have been passing their skills from one generation to the next since the Thirty Years War (1620). The property has 40 hectares and is managed according to biodynamic principles. Zind Humbrecht has long been established as one of Alsace's most reputable producers. Léonard Humbrecht has placed quality over quantity, developing superb terroirs that have been neglected because they are too difficult to work, such as Rangen in Thann. Today, Olivier Humbrecht and his father are only interested in exceptional terroirs; their insistence on quality, combined with virtuoso technical ability, enable them to produce exceptionally dense, complex wines that are always respectful of the characteristics of the grape varieties and the terroir.
