Pierre Brecht Riesling 2024

Brilliant lime-and-apple freshness in this delicious, dry Riesling from a family cellar in Alsace
Brilliant, crisp, dry Riesling from the beautiful, sun-blessed region of Alsace. Often forgotten, the appellation makes some of France’s finest whites, and Riesling is its most noble variety – just taste this pristine, lime and mineral-fresh white.

Riesling, in case you hadn’t heard, is having a bit of a moment. It's long overdue. It’s wines can range from bone dry to fully sweet, but all with a riveting freshness.

Some of the best-known Rieslings come from Germany – but many forget that this variety produces some of its finest wines in Alsace, eastern France. Steep slopes, abundant sunshine (it’s the sunniest spot in all France) and cool down drafts from the Vosges mountains give the wines a pristine freshness, and amazing intensity.

This is an elegant white from the Gisselbrecht family, who have been making wine in the region since the 17th century. Today, brothers Philippe and Claude Gisselbrecht have 17 hectares of vineyards in the region’s best locations.

Pierre Brecht Riesling is as dry as they come, with green apple notes and lime zip. Enjoy with fish pie or seafood pasta.
