Marcel Deiss ‘Burg Cru’ Blanc ‘20

This sweet wine from the Burg vineyard displays a deep, burnished gold color. The aroma is profoundly intense and decadent, offering a luxurious bouquet of caramelized pineapple, orange marmalade, honeycomb, and a distinctive note of exotic spices. The palate is rich, unctuous, and incredibly concentrated, yet it possesses a magical levity thanks to a brilliant streak of acidity that cuts through the sweetness. Flavors of tropical fruit, candied ginger, and a deep mineral core create a harmonious and deeply satisfying experience. Crafted from grapes affected by noble rot (botrytis cinerea), this wine is a testament to patient harvesting and precise fermentation to achieve its perfect balance between sweetness and vibrancy. Earning 95 points, it is sublime with strong blue cheese, pâté, or tarte tatin.
