Domaine Goepp, Petit Blanc 2021 Heiligenstein, Alsace Sylvaner, Riesling

This is a blend of Sylvaner & Riesling, pressed direct and aged on the lees (the yeast from fermentation) in 100 year old traditional alsation oak tuns. A bright, textured and mineral wine with a lot of depth from the ageing. On opening it has a bit of reduction (a flinty, smoky aroma) which goes away with a bit of air, but helps to preserve the wine for days when open!
