Domaine Loew - Riesling Sélection de Grains Nobles Grand Cru Altenberg de Bergbieten 2015 (50cl)
95/100
Robert Parker
"The Altenberg de Bergbieten Riesling Sélection de Grains Nobles offers an extraordinarily crisp, fresh, and aromatic bouquet of white peach and apricot, accented by notes of lime and minerals. Round and juicy on the palate, with a noble texture that is rich and highly elegant, this is a pure, refined, energetic, and briny Riesling SGN with a structured, tangy, persistent, and mouth-watering finish. Very sweet, yet exceptionally delicate, and with great aging potential.” (Wine Advocate 2017 - Robert Parker)

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2017 guide): 3 stars (High-quality production, setting the standard in its sector)
About the estate:
Étienne Loew is courageously working to raise awareness of the little-known terroirs of Westhalten, where very few winemakers bottle their own wine. Meticulous winemaking and extended aging (primarily in stainless steel tanks) result in pure, precise wines; the Rieslings are very dry.

Rated estate (2017 guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)
About the estate:
For several years now, this estate—skillfully managed by Etienne Loew—has captivated us with the consistency of its production and the exceptional quality of its wines. He has mastered the art of fully capturing the nuances of the soils around Westhoffen, and he tends to this somewhat isolated vineyard with the vigilance of a sentinel guarding his ramparts! His touch is sure, his approach open-minded, and his wines stand out for their elegance. A winery worth discovering.
