Yannick Meckert, Spicy Wine, 2025

Grape: 97% Riesling

Reigon: Alsace

Organic Riesling grapes were harvested by hand and underwent direct press. Fermentation with indigenous yeast. Aged in old barrels. A small portion of Muscat and Gewürztraminer was blended into the wine. No filtration, fining or added sulphur.

This wine is a natural white wine with a medium body. Once again Yannick shows his love for partnering aromatic grapes with more mineral varieties. Despite being just 3% of the blend, it is the Muscat which first expresses its fruity and perfumed and floral character in the palate before the rocky citrus of the Riesling arrives then leaving you with a salty finish. Another unique wine from one of the most sought after producers in Alsace.
