Louis Sipp Kirchberg de Ribeauvillé Grand Cru Riesling 2001

On to a riesling, this one from Ribeauvillé Alsace. Intense gold, the bouquet showed honey, pineapple, soft citrus, red apple, some boytritus notes and a hint of petrol. The palate was medium bodied, with rich maturing fruits over clean acids and mineral. Finish was quite long, dry and round. An excellent example of old world French riesling, and did seem popular with everybody.
