187 Muscat Altenberg de Bergbieten Grand Cru AC 2009
Domaine Fréderic MochelGrape:100% Muscat Ottonel (14% alc, 10.1g/l of rs)
This comes from 30 year old vines and is a rich structured wine in 2009. It is a long keeper – the 1988 was outstanding in late 2005! Once the wine gets beyond six years it takes an altogether different guise, revealing layers of complexity that make it one of France’s finest, most surprising and under-rated grape varieties. Available October. For drinking now to 2020+.
