Characterized by coral limestone and the cool microclimate, this exceptional location is perfect for grape varieties. Aromas of ripe apples, mirabelle plums, bergamot and almonds with a hint of herbal spice. Juicy fruit on the palate, paired with an elegant acidity. Tight-knit, salty minerality and harmonious texture. A wine that is already seductive, but is also made for long maturation.
Wine Advocate: 95 Points
From coralline limestone soils and bottled in late April, the 2017 Ried Flamberg Morillon –G STK– is pure, cool and reductive on the nose. Aged on the full lees for nearly one year in large oak vats, this is a lush, highly elegant, intense and persistent Morillon with ripe and concentrated, lemon-fresh fruit and lingering salty grip. A fascinating, great wine with so much tension and mineral vitality. Fabulous and a duty to buy. The wine was vinified in old and oval-shaped ten- and 25-hectoliter vats. Tasted in May 2019. Anticipated Maturity: 2020-2050
