Gewurztraminer Clos Windsbuhl |

WA 95 (8/2014): A decidedly sweet Zind-Humbrecht 2010 Gewurztraminer Clos Windsbuhl smells pungently of caramelized parsnip and celery root, whose intriguingly earthy flavors are complimented on an expansive palate and in a succulently long, rivetingly interactive finish by juicy orange and lemon along with alkaline, chalky, saline and ginger notes. Here is another 2010-vintage instance of Gewurztraminer not only possessed of Riesling-like vivacity and minerality but also of varietal character sublimated to that of site. Incidentally, in a desperate and largely successful attempt to keep boar from once again eating into the profits of this clos, Humbrecht put an extra charge on the electric fence that surrounds it, and smeared honey on the lowest wire so that the wild pigs would make tender nose or tongue contact! Plan to follow this through at least 2035. Humbrecht cautions that it would be a shame to be seduced by its current performance into drinking your stocks down anytime over the next decade.
VM 92+ (11/2012): Bright medium yellow. Fruit salad and spices on the nose, with hints of more exotic fruits. Very sweet and spicy, with a distinct dried fruit quality in the mouth. Shows a slightly bitter-edged phenolic quality on the back end, but this may be mostly a function of some unabsorbed CO2 that will eventually be absorbed. This youthfully hard wine needs patience.

Riesling Clos Saint Urbain Rangen de Thann |

WA 94 (8/2014): White peach and grapefruit – strongly tinged with pit and rind – lend Zind-Humbrecht’s 2010 Riesling Rangen Clos Saint Urbain lusciousness and winsomeness well beyond those displayed by its immediate siblings. To be sure, significantly lower total acidity, higher pH, and (at 9.5 grams) higher residual sugar, are scarcely incidental to that effect, and this wine is plenty bright and zesty. A smoky aura and palate suffusion of peat and black tea such as are associated with this site are very much present, and the invigoratingly energetic penetration of this Riesling’s strikingly long, focused finish is accompanied by a no less notable impression of levity thanks at least in part to analytically modest (12.5%) alcohol. The infectious juiciness here promises to last decades – I wouldn’t want to drink my last bottle before 2035 – and if surplus reserve of extract and sense of energy count toward age-worthiness that may well prove a conservative estimate. This is the vintage that Rangen needs to show its greatest potential. But there have not been many such cool growing seasons of late.
WS 93 (10/2012): A lovely wine, with a minerally undertow and finely tuned acidity framing apricot, kumquat, acacia blossom, smoke and crystallized honey notes that show a hint of lychee. A zesty thread of spice winds through the wine and lingers on the subtle finish. Drink now through 2025. 450 cases made.
VM 92 (11/2012): Pale yellow-gold. Complex, scented nose offers pineapple, smoke, lichee, pepper, mint and hay. Rich, plush and sweet, with harmonious acidity framing the concentrated yellow fruit flavors. A real fruit bomb in the mouth; in fact, today the site's smoky minerality is very much in the background. Nicely dry on the palate but I wanted a bit more definition and thrust. Ian d'Agata. |
