The Sensational Christmas-Six in combipakket

Wine in Black

Jean de la Fontaine was een wijs man, die door het schrijven van dierenfabels op meesterlijke wijze zijn tijdgenoten een spiegel voorhield. Zo schreef hij het beroemde verhaal over de hen die gouden eieren legde. De fabel geeft nog steeds op eloquente wijze inzicht in de verhouding tussen hebzucht en rijkdom. Wat heeft dat te maken met deze 'L'Éloquente' champagne? Het gouden etiket op deze delicate champagne is een hommage aan deze fabel. De strenge juryleden van Guide Hachette deelden 3 sterren uit aan deze uitzonderlijke champagne. Roger Voss van Wine Enthusiast was ook onder de indruk en kende 91 punten toe!

This super-elegant 2022 dry riesling has an expressive peachy nose with delicate orange, nutmeg and chamomile nuances. Then you take a sip and a huge wave of wet stone minerality pours over you, although the wine is sleek and racy. Extremely long and precise wet stone finish that takes your breath away. Longer on the lees in cask than previous vintages with bottling in May. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

From the cooler western part of the Johannisberg, the 2022 Schloss Johannisberg Bronzelack Riesling Trocken is the "coolish-climate wine" from this prestigious domaine and represents the Taunus quartzite soil. Vinified 30% in traditional oak and bottled in May 2023, the wine opens with an elegant and precise flinty-scented bouquet with delicate sur lie aromas. Thanks to shadowed grapes in the afternoons, this dry Riesling is also a sharp and linear on the palate, with texture, good intensity and precise and vibrantly fresh acidity (eight grams per liter of total acidity). This is a classical, real coolish style of the 2022 vintage. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in September 2023.

Vinous by Antonio Galloni

The 2022 Riesling Schloss Johannisberg Bronzelack was harvested from dedicated parcels selected for coolness in the west of the vineyard to harvest the most delicate Riesling possible. This works here because the vineyard is cooler and retains its night coolness longer. Forty percent of the wine was fermented in Stück , the rest in stainless steel. Pear peel and Amalfi lemon zest with a vestige of mango make out the nose. While light-footed, a distinct backbone is outlined by ripe lemon freshness. There is nothing loud about this wine. The Riesling's exuberance is toned down into a linear, balanced, unshowy wine. The 2022 is serene and understated but rather convincing with its straight line of balance and lasting freshness.
