L'abeille de Fieuzal rouge is a superb Pessac-Leognan red, fruity and full of energy. This is Chateau Fieuzal's second wine, which requires more time to taste. A great success for Chateau Fieuzal in this balanced 2019 vintage.

The cuvée Drei Exa from Domaine Ginglinger refers to its village of origin, Eguisheim (Exa) and the three castles overlooking the village. Riesling Drei Exa is a blend of very fine, predominantly limestone-sandstone parcels adjoining Grand Cru Pfersigberg in the Wettolsheimerweg, Dreistein and Sundgass districts. This dry Riesling is characterized above all by its finesse and elegance. The bouquet offers a delicate fruitiness that asserts itself with age. The balance on the palate is long-lined, characteristic of great terroirs with predominantly limestone.
RVF: "Drei Exa is a fine reference for lovers of dry Riesling"
The Paul Ginglinger estate boasts 12 hectares ideally situated in Eguisheim on marl-limestone-sandstone terroirs, including two grands crus (Eichberg and Pfersigberg). In the cellar, the wines are made with particular care, at every stage of vinification and ageing, to preserve the natural expression of the grape varieties and the mineral identity of the different terroirs.RVF 2019, domaine une étoile: "With a history going back more than 4 years, this estate is one of the region's finest references. Today, it's Michel Ginglinger who, after an international experience, holds the reins with rigor and conviction. Curious and a perfectionist, he has gradually added his own touch to this humble Eguisheim estate. Since his arrival in 2, he has intelligently deepened the parcel-by-parcel approach, so pay close attention to the information on the back label."

Encore un peu sur la réserve, le nez est assez complexe sur les terpènes, les fruits blancs et les agrumes. La bouche est prometteuse, ronde et plutôt longue. Un excellent compagnon d’apéritif

CloseThe Pinot Blanc du domaine Ginglinger is a complex blend of different parcels of pinot blanc and pinot auxerrois from various Eguisheim lieux-dits: Langrod, Bachtal, Klein Krumling, Lang Striebicher and Bodenacker. The golden auxerrois grapes give the wine a frank, pronounced fruitiness and fullness on the palate, while the pinot blanc adds freshness, liveliness and a hint of citrus. The bouquet of this pinot blanc is pure and spring-like, blending pear, lemon, fresh hazelnut, vanilla and white flowers. The balance on the palate is dry, articulated around suave, crisp flesh and invigorating freshness. A great charmer that goes well with a wide range of dishes.
CloseThe Pinot Noir Les Rocailles 2023 is the great red cuvée from Domaine Paul Ginglinger - a parcel selection from vines in direct contact with the marl-sandstone bedrock of the Mittlerer Eich locality, in the heart of the Grand Cru Eichberg in Eguisheim. Small, concentrated berries, rich in color and fine tannins, hand-harvested, partially destemmed, vatted for 2 to 3 weeks, certified organic. Full-bodied, racy red with great finesse and freshness. Goes well with game, lamb and rib of beef.
CloseThe Riesling Grand Cru Eichberg 2024 is the most ambitious Riesling from the Domaine Paul Ginglinger - a single plot on the Hinterer Eich locality, in the heart of the "montagne aux Chênes" in Eguisheim, facing due south on the deep marls and sandstone scree of the Eichberg. Certified organic, hand-picked, slow fermentation in the cellar over several months, aged on fine lees. Dry, powerful, broad and complex, candied citrus, peach, imposing minerality.
