Description
The 2015 Riesling Luft Vendanges Tardives from Domaine Camille Braun is an exceptional wine from a renowned Alsatian terroir. This late-harvest Riesling benefits from the ideal conditions of the 2015 vintage, resulting in a concentrated and elegant wine, rich in aromatic complexity.
Harvested late from the “Luft” terroir, which encourages prolonged ripening, the grapes achieve optimal maturity. This late-harvest process concentrates the natural sugars while retaining the freshness and acidity characteristic of Riesling.
Blend
The wine is made exclusively from Riesling, a noble grape variety of Alsace known for capturing the terroir’s minerality and its ability to produce fine, long-aging wines, whether dry or sweet.
Tasting Notes
Appearance: Bright golden yellow with intense reflections, indicating concentration and ripeness of the grapes.
Nose: Complex and powerful, opening with aromas of candied citrus, ripe yellow fruits like apricot and peach, with hints of honey and mineral nuances.
Palate: Generous and smooth, with a rich residual sugar beautifully balanced by vibrant acidity. Flavors of exotic fruits, citrus zest, and white flowers unfold elegantly, leading to a long, fresh, and slightly spicy finish.
Aging Potential
Due to its concentration and pronounced acidity, the 2015 Riesling Luft Vendanges Tardives has exceptional aging potential. It can be cellared for 10 to 20 years or more, gaining in complexity and depth as it evolves.
Food Pairings
This late-harvest Riesling pairs perfectly with rich and indulgent dishes such as foie gras, fish or poultry in creamy sauces, or fruit-based desserts. It also complements aged blue cheeses like Roquefort or Bleu d’Auvergne.
