Wine Review Online:  "The wines from the house of Léon Beyer are among the very best made in Alsace, and yet they have never received the accolades or the commercial prominence that they deserve in the United States. They tend to be uncompromisingly dry but balanced and supremely classy, and are invariably terrific at the table, where they routinely outshine the big, blousy style that often earns more points from wine critics. All of these descriptors apply to this entry-level Riesling (that’s right--the Beyer Rieslings get better from this point), which shows fresh, driving fruit that recalls green apples with a backnote of ripe lemon and a very appealing mineral edge to the finish. Well suited to many foods, but perfect for simple preparations of freshwater fish." Jun 2010

Winery:  "Riesling is dry, refined and delicately fruity, with an elegant bouquet of mineral or floral notes.  Our wines are rich, intense and extremely aromatic.  The Classic dry Alsace wines are fresh and fruity, with a body and weight that reflect the grape varietals, the soil, vineyard location and the particular vintage. They are wines of individual character."
