Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: full-bodied, high acidity, off-dry
Altenberg de Bergheim is one of Alsace's most prestigious Grand Cru sites, known for producing rich, powerful Rieslings with a distinct minerality and a touch of residual sweetness that balances the wine's naturally high acidity. Expect a full-bodied white with aromas of ripe orchard fruit, honey and white flowers, layered over a stony, saline backbone that reflects the site's limestone soils. This is a wine built for aging, gaining complexity and depth over years in the bottle.
