Zind-Humbrecht Rangen de Thann Clos Saint Urbain Riesling Grand Cru

94+/100 PP The 2014 Riesling Rangen de Thann Clos Saint Urbain is pure, precise and mineral on the nose, with flinty and speculoos aromas. Full-bodied, round and elegant on the palate, this is a rich, intense and firmly structured yet also pure, vital and piquant Riesling. It is full of tension but also finesse and a really dry, stimulating taste (just three grams of residual sugar). The finish is long, tight and very complex, and reveals firm tannins due to 18 hours of whole-cluster pressing. Just 12.5% alcohol. (Stephan Reinhardt, robertparker.com) Winegrowing is a passion that has been passed down from father to son in the Humbrecht family since the 17th century.
