The Riesling Via Saint-Jacques opens with subtly spiced notes of citrus and pineapple on the nose. Characterized on the palate by a crisp acidity, it displays the hallmarks of the schist terroir: freshness and minerality that linger through the finish.

About the estate:
Biodynamic farming always takes a few years to show results, both in terms of root development and soil health, and Michel Chapoutier knows this well—he purchased this estate in 2009 with a few friends who are connoisseurs of fine wines. Located in northern Alsace, on a vein of blue schist, the estate is gradually finding its footing. The single-vineyard Rieslings (Burg, Buehl, and Fels) are beginning to reveal the subtle nuances of their soil.
