Clos St. Urbain - Riesling

The 1995 Riesling Clos St.-Urbain (made from 18 hectoliters per hectare) is an impressive, unevolved, tightly-knit Riesling that is still in its infancy. According to Olivier Humbrecht, it took ten months for this wine to ferment. The intriguing nose of roasted nuts, ginger, and spice hints at an exotic future. Rich and medium-bodied, with high acidity, and a spicy, earthy personality, this wine needs 1-3 years of cellaring; it should keep for 10-15+ years.
