Riesling is its signature variety, and the granite gives a firm, mineral spine that matters greatly in a wine of this sweetness. Domaine Weinbach, run by the Faller family, farms biodynamically. Sélection de Grains Nobles bottlings are much scarcer and richer than Vendanges Tardives, demanding a berry-by-berry harvest and, for Riesling, at least 256 grams per litre of sugar at picking, with a far higher proportion of botrytised fruit. This was wild-fermented and aged 18 months in stainless steel, finishing at 10.5 per cent alcohol with 144 grams per litre of residual sugar balanced by 7.6 grams of acidity, which is the whole argument for the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApproachable now and built to age for several decades. Serve at 8-10°C with blue cheese, a fruit tart or on its own after dinner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
