Biodynamic. Primarily responsible for the Weinbach we know today, Catherine Faller’s mother, Colette Faller, was one of the legends of Alsatian wine. Sadly, Madame Faller passed away in early 2015 and, like her daughter Laurence and husband Théo before her, is now immortalised by a wine bearing her name. This cuvée comes from 50- to 60-year-old vines in the Bonnes Terres terroir, lower down on the Schlossberg slope, where the soils are deeper and sandier. The fruit here tends to be picked a touch later. Accordingly, the register of flavours is more intense, running from white flowers to mirabelle plum and citrus zest. The wine’s power is balanced by great freshness and verve.

“Beautifully ripe, powerful and concentrated, this medium- to full-bodied dry Riesling also has an uplifting freshness. Stacks of orange, apricot and blanched almond aromas. I love the textural and mineral complexity in the long, complete finish that doesn’t want to end. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink or hold.”
