Marcel Deiss Engelgarten

The "garden of angels" is one of the most famous terroirs in Bergheim, with a gravel structure that stresses the plant and leads to small yields of extremely ripe grapes. Among Marcel Deiss' famous and controversial premier cru, since the term does not apply in Alsace, this is a sensational wine with breadth and expressiveness on the nose but also an almost "vertical" palate, bursting with energy and power and traveling through the wine, giving it length on the palate. The minerality here is reminiscent of stone and gives it an extremely flavourful dimension. Austere yet ripe, a wine that can age for many many years developing its stunning complexity.
