2014 Riesling Clos St Hune
Buying options
Tasting notes
Limestone. To be released 2020 or 2021. Great tension and lift – though a fairly discreet nose at the moment. Very lively and drier than most. Lots buried underneath. Masses to chew on. Easy to overlook in a sort of Domaine de Chevalier way…. Amazingly long. (JR)

The 2014 Riesling Clos Ste Hune is clear and intense on the concentrated nose, offering ripe white-fruit aromas. On the palate, this is a bone-dry, vital and finessed Riesling with a long and tension-filled, salty finish. The 2014 is a kind of quintessence of the Ribeauvillé/Hunawihr terroir: pure, lean, stony and salty, with no flesh, but lots of bones and minerals at this very early moment. Picked at 35 hl/ha this is a straight Sainte Hune that will last for for 30+ years.
