Amélie & Charles Sparr - Riesling Altenbourg 2022
95/100
James Suckling
"Already very impressive today, it should continue to improve! (James Suckling)"
"Even the nose of this great dry Riesling from Alsace is dense and exotic, with floral and honey notes. Rich, full-bodied, and powerful, yet with a lovely clementine-like freshness. The fine tannins give this wine a surprisingly silky finish." (James Suckling 2024)

Rated Estate (2025 Guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
Founded in 2017, this estate is built on the legacy of vineyards brought together by Amélie Buecher—who comes from a long line of winemakers—and Charles Sparr, the son of a family of wine merchants. Certified organic in 2017 and biodynamic in 2019, their vineyard includes four grands crus and offers a consistent range of authentic, unpretentious wines. The quality is improving rapidly, the Pinot Noirs shine, and the estate earned its first star this year.

About the wine:
Even the nose of this great dry Riesling from Alsace is dense and exotic, with floral and honey notes. Rich, full-bodied, and powerful, yet with a lovely clementine-like freshness. The fine tannins give this wine a surprisingly silky finish. This wine is very impressive now, but it should improve with bottle aging. Made from biodynamically grown grapes certified by Demeter. Drink now or celller.
