Biodynamic. Théo Riesling comes exclusively from the monopole Le Clos des Capucins—a vineyard that takes its name from the Capuchin friars who arrived in the area in 1619—at the base of the celebrated Schlossberg hill. The clos is well protected from winds by the surrounding hills and walls. The soils are sand, alluvial pebbles and granitic gravel. The low-cropping vines typically offer up a supple and pithy Riesling that is wonderfully accessible when young—a reflection of these sandy soils. As with all Weinbach dry Rieslings, this was pressed as whole bunches, fermented without any yeast additions, and matured in very old oak casks for, in this case, 10 months.

The Domaine Jean Louis Chave Selection Saint Joseph Blanc Circa 2022 is a stunning white wine from France. This vintage was produced by the prestigious Europvin, a renowned winery based in France. Upon pouring, the wine displays a pale golden hue, hinting at its delicate and elegant nature. On the nose, aromas of white flowers and ripe stone fruits dance alongside subtle notes of honey and toasted almonds. The palate is equally impressive, with a rich and creamy texture balanced by a refreshing acidity. Flavors of lemon curd, pear, and a touch of minerality linger on the finish, leaving a lasting impression. This wine is a true representation of the quality and craftsmanship of French winemaking and will undoubtedly continue to improve with age. A must-try for any lover of fine white wines.

Taking its name from the Capuchin friars who arrived in 1619, the Clos is protected from winds by the surrounding hills and by the walls enclosing it. The soils here consist of sand, alluvial pebbles and granitic gravel and this produces a Riesling as zippy, zesty and mineral-driven as it is fleshy. White peach, green and yellow citrus along with melon, kaffir lime and lemongrass notes. Lovely texture and a vibrant, fresh finish.
