Cave de Beblenheim Riesling 2011

Variety: 100% Riesling
Country of origin: France
Wine appellation: Alsace
Vintage: 2011
Alcohol content: 12.5%
Color: light yellow
Bouquet: mineral, citrus tones
Taste: medium body, lemon crust, minerality, hint of herby profile,  medium to longer finish

Quite different from the J.P. Muller. This botlle is more mineral and less flowery and fruity both in the nose and taste. Looking back at my tasting notes of 2007 vintage I would guess the bottle needs time to age.
