Josmeyer Grand Cru Brand Riesling 2012
Descripción
Cristalino y refinado. Enérgico y vital. Un vino blanco alsaciano procedente del viñedo Grand Cru denominado Brand. De él Josmeyer solo ha producido 1.800 botellas. Con este vino descubrirás la austeridad propia de la casa elaboradora y el increíble potencial de guarda de estos vinos blancos. Para Stephan Reinhardt, el catador de Robert Parker en Alsacia que le otorgó 92 puntos, "aún es demasiado discreto para evaluar con precisión su verdadero carácter".

Opinión de los críticos
From low yielding, 65+ years old vines on granite soils, the 2012 Riesling Grand Cru Brand is pure, cool, fresh and piquant on the nose, intermixing citrus flavors with flinty aromas. Intense, pure and mineral on the palate, this dry, austerely-firm structured wine reveals remarkable vitality, power and tension in the very long and salty finish. Very crystalline and refined, but still too discreet to evaluate its true class precisely. The 2012 Brand was fermented down to three grams of residual sugar and 12.5% alcohol. Picked at the same time like the corresponding Grand Cru Hengst, the Brand should develop very well over the next 15+ years. 1,800 bottles produced.
