The 2020 Riesling Grand Cru Wineck-Schlossberg is only the second vintage of this cru, with the inaugural 2019 bottled only in magnums. The steep vineyard, with vines planted in 1957, 1966 and 1974, is still in transition to both organic and biodynamic certification, although they were only farmed organically by the owner who delivered the grapes to the Domaine Paul Blanck before but who has recently been hired by the Barthelmé family, including three hectares of vineyards. The bouquet is clear and very delicate on the nose that reveals very fine and ethereal fruit aromas that are also a bit reminiscent of Muscat d'Alsace and intertwined with delicate notes of weathered granite, herbs and even a bit of iodine. On the palate, this is a lush but refined, crystalline and very elegant Wineck-Schlossberg with remarkable intensity of fruit and terroir expression. The tannins are very fine here and interwoven with the texture and the crystalline, mineral acidity that gives this cru its spine and energy. This is an excellent new Riesling for Albert Mann. 13.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in May 2022.
