Tasting notes

Marcel Deiss is a renowned name in Alsace, you know. Their Altenberg de Bergheim Grand Cru stands out for its unique terroir and climate. The 2005 vintage, in particular, is noted for its matured balance and complex flavors. It feels like the essence of Alsace is captured in every glass, offering a truly distinct experience.

In volume 35, this wine was the final offering by Ma Famille during the showdown. Described as the "awakening of the earth," it symbolizes the arrival of spring. The wine captures the essence of burgeoning life, where countless grasses and crops awaken, bringing with them a song of life.

Pouring it into the glass, you see a golden hue that shimmers in the light. The aroma is open, with rich notes of ripe pear and white peach, accompanied by a subtle floral hint. On the palate, it starts with a silky texture. The acidity is robust and fresh, yet there's a notable mineral character that stands out. The finish is long and complex, revealing new layers with each sip.

This wine is elegant yet powerful, best served slightly chilled at around 10-12°C. A larger glass will enhance its aroma and flavor, letting you fully appreciate its depth and complexity.
