160 Muscat Altenberg de Bergbieten Grand Cru AC 2005
Domaine Fréderic MochelGrape:100% Muscat Ottonel (13% alc, 7g/l of rs)
This comes from 30 year old vines and is a richer, bigger structured wine than the village wine. It is a long keeper – the 1988 was outstanding in late 2005! Once the wine gets beyond 6 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. For drinking now to 2020+.

169 Riesling AC 2007
