|
The Humbrecht family have been making wines, exclusively from their own vineyards since 1658, when the founding father of the Humbrecht dynasty, Sonntag Humbrecht, began making wine in the Alsace region. The Domaine Zind Humbrecht itself began in 1959 with the marriage of Leonard Humbrecht to Genevieve Zind and the subsequent merging of their vineyards.The Humbrechts are a family of vintners with a passion for wine growing and the great wines of Alsace and today the Domaine now owns over 28 hectares of vineyards in the Haut-Rhin Department. The success of Zind-Humbrecht wines lies in the attention they pay to the vineyards and this Riesling is displaying a very aromatic and seductive style. Totally dry, but with an elegant, delicate and open structure, it is showing a lot of flavours including roses, lime and lemon. This wine is a classic example of a riper style of Riesling. (12 x 75 cl)

Jackson Wine Estates LA CREMA Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast California
Description: La Crema was founded in 1979 and quickly established itself as a pioneer for intensely flavoured Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from the cool Sonoma Coast. Continuing this tradition, La Crema pursues the ultimate expression of the Russian River Valley, Carneros and Anderson Valley by handcrafting wines of distinctive flavour which achieve elegance and balance The Sonoma Coast is located on the western coastal fringe of Sonoma County, starting with a narrow strip at the Mendocino County border and continuing through the mouth of the Russian River; then down to the Sonoma Carneros border of Napa. This AVA is the largest in Sonoma County yet is the least planted. Known for its dramatic flux in temperature, the warm days and cool nights allow gradual ripening of grapes with fully developed flavours, high natural acidity and low pH. The region’s cold conditions push the limits of grape growing making it particularly well suited for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Once in the winery this 100% Pinot Noir is aged 8 months mainly in French Oak, of which 28% are new barrels. As a result Melissa Stackhouse, La Crema Winemaker considered: 'Aromas of black cherry, licorice and anise. Cherry and plum flavours with hints of leather and tar, balanced acidity and sturdy tannins round out the mouth.' Available in 37.5 cl Half Bottles. (12 x 37.5 cl)
