Marcel Deiss Altenberg de Bergheim Grand Cru - 2010 (750ml) Joel 4 Golden amber in color withGolden in color, with a shimmer of apricots, the 2010 Grand Cru Altenberg de Bergheim opens with a terribly young, still phenolic, very clear and concentrated nose with mineral and spicy oaky flavors. On the palate this is a highly concentrated, clear, elegant, fresh and tight Altenberg with good sweetness, piquancy and firm tannins. This wine will be great in 15 20 years, but I wouldn't touch it before. Remarkable finesse and concentration here.
