This brilliantly run estate is making wines that are among the finest in France. The talented Colette Faller has turned over the winemaking reins to her daughters. 1992 is the first vintage her youngest daughter has vinified and the results are impressive. The problem in Alsace in 1992 was not one of ripeness, but, rather, of too large a crop. Domaine Weinbach was one of a handful of estates that employed serious crop thinning. The results of their efforts are admirably displayed in their concentrated wines.Do not make the mistake of ignoring Domaine Weinbach's 1992 Muscat-Reserve Personnelle. This decadent, dry wine offers a superb bouquet with aromas of ripe fruits. The intense perfume and gorgeously crisp, fresh flavors beg for this wine to be consumed over the next 1-2 years. It will make an ideal aperitif wine. Among the most successful wines of the vintage in Alsace, Domaine Weinbach's 1992s compete favorably with the great wines produced at this estate in 1990 and 1989. Moreover, the international recession and a slightly stronger dollar have resulted in the lowest prices in the last decade. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Chester, VT.
