2023 Domaine Marcel Deiss, "Riquewihr," Alsace - 750ML

Domaine Marcel Deiss is one of Alsace’s most distinctive estates, known for biodynamic farming and a deep commitment to expressing place through traditional field-blend sensibility. Sourced from the village of Riquewihr, this 2023 brings together Riesling’s lift and Pinot Gris’ breadth in a wine that feels both textured and precise.

Blend: Riesling and Pinot Gris.

Tasting Notes: Aromas of white peach, citrus peel, grapefruit, kumquat, orchard fruit, and subtle floral tones unfold with a cool mineral edge. The palate is dry, full-bodied, and layered, showing ripe white fruit, gentle spice, and a lightly saline freshness that gives the wine clarity and length.

Structure: Textural and full, with vibrant acidity, mineral tension, and a polished, age-worthy finish.

Drink Window: 2025–2033.

Decanting: Serve chilled, ideally after 20–30 minutes in a decanter or large white-wine glass to let the wine’s texture and aromatic complexity open. For near-term drinking, allow it to warm slightly in the glass rather than serving ice-cold.

Elegant, gastronomic, and quietly distinctive, this is a compelling Alsace white for the table—equally suited to seafood, roast poultry, creamy cheeses, or refined vegetarian dishes. It offers the richness collectors expect from Deiss, while remaining fresh, versatile, and beautifully poised for both immediate enjoyment and short- to mid-term cellaring.
