La Ferme des 9 Chemins, Le Chemin des Loups 2023

Place: Alsace, France

Grape: Sylvaner + Auxerrois + Riesling

Vibe: Saline

What a lovely trio. Everything directly pressed from volcanic sandstone at a decent altitude for Alsace. The fruit feels dense and juicy, whilst the finish is saline and mineral. A cool vintage, and a really beautiful one, quite emotive. It's not loud, it doesn't shout. It doesn't need to. Delicacy is the name of the game, and all the better for it. ABV: 13%
