All four dry Riesling offerings display high flavor extraction, as well as mouthsearing levels of acidity. The light golden-colored 1995 Riesling Cuvee Ste.-Catherine Schlossberg offers a closed set of aromatics (with airing some apricot, peach, and mineral-like scents emerge), fabulous purity and ripeness, but extremely high acidity, and a backward, austere, medium to full-bodied style. This wine improves immensely in the glass, but prospective purchasers should be prepared to wait 2-4 years for it to evolve. It is capable of lasting 15 or more years.Alsace wine enthusiasts will no doubt argue for decades as to whether Domaine Zind-Humbrecht or Domaine Weinbach produces this fairy tale region's most profound wines. The ZH wines tend to be slightly sweeter, with higher alcohol. Since Laurence Weinbach began making the wines, Domaine Weinbach's wines are drier, although still authoritatively powerful, rich, and concentrated.Importer: Vineyard Brands, Chester, VT; tel.
