Domaine Agapé 's Riesling Expression is a blend of several of the estate's plots, mainly in the Jungholtz area of Ribeauvillé. Here, vines averaging 50 years of age sink their roots mid-slope into a soil rich in marl and limestone, giving the Riesling structure and depth, while the East/South-East exposure guarantees gradual ripening of the grapes. AmongAlsace's white wines, this Riesling reveals an impressive nervousness of body and aromatic amplitude.
Philippe Mischler, sommelier at Mundovin : Domaine Agapé's Riesling Expression is reputed to be one of the tastiest incarnations of this king of grapes in Alsace. Its liveliness and balance are immediately seductive, with no need to show off. It skilfully plays with the tension of the terroir and the roundness of ageing on lees, in a suave, gastronomic style.
On the nose, delicate white flowers evoke acacia and honeysuckle. On aeration, a fresh flinty minerality emerges.
The freshness of the palate matches that of the nose, carried by a lively acidity imbued with minerality. Hints of preserved lemon and white-fleshed fruit add a gourmet note without weighing the wine down. The finish lingers with persistent tension, signalling a wine that is both light and full of character.
