When I first saw this

This matured in brand new French oak barrels for 16 months

with good concentration and chewy extract—Leflaive performed a green harvest on this young vines this year—underpinned by juicy acids and concluding with a pure finish

you might say "ambitious" bouquet with layers of small black cherries

cardamom and bay leaves with a touch of eucalyptus

Grosset, Alea Riesling 2023 750ML IconSake2026 When I first saw thisThe 2023 Alea Riesling leads with roasted pineapple, green apples, hints of lychee and juniper, lemon oil and coriander. The fruit is a little quieter this year, but it's no less "present." It is a beautiful wine, fleshy and soft, but it still remains tethered to the tracks of very fine, very firm acidity. 12. 5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
