“‘The Wineck-Schlossberg shines’ (RVF)”

“Right from the start, the bouquet of this Wineck-Schlossberg highlights its depth. It manages to strike a balance between richness and freshness, between spices and fruit! Salty on the palate, the wine stands out for its linear and sharp character. It achieves a balance between acidity and austerity through its salinity and vigor. The invigorating finish only prolongs the pleasure, highlighting an infinite persistence. A wine that doesn’t do half-measures. It goes straight to the point and carries itself with confidence. It’s up to each person to embrace it… or not???? What a great success!” (Yves Beck 2025)

Wine rated (2026 guide) 95/100

Rated Estate (2023 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 wine:

Wineck-Schlossberg shines: this Riesling raises the bar with a vibrant structure and subtle hints of bitterness.

About the estate:

In just a few years, Félix Meyer has built a solid reputation in Alsace. This is no accident: the viticulture is of high quality, with yields carefully controlled, and the wines are aged on fine lees in large casks. Having joined the family estate in 1992, Félix has skillfully brought out the character of Katzenthal’s granite-based terroirs. Don’t overlook his Gewürztraminer, which is never heavy and achieves a crystalline purity, winning over even the detractors of this variety, which is all too often described as cloying. The estate expanded by 3.5 hectares in 2019, and 2021 saw the arrival of organic certification.
