Domaine Barmes Buecher Riesling ‘Clos Sand’ 2019

$86.00 inc. GST

The intense flinty note somewhat masks the Amalfi-lemon aroma on the nose, but this is just a sign of the wine’s extreme youthfulness and slowly blows off with aeration. In spite of having the typical ripeness for the vintage, this is sleek, racy and salty with a long, crystalline finish. Excellent aging potential. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.

Description

Balance, harmony, and the quest for the truest and purest expression of varietal, vintage, and terroir: these are the goals of Barmès Buecher.

The Domaine was created in 1985 by François Barmès and Geneviève Barmès (born Buecher) with vineyards that had been in their families since the 17th century.In 1995 the vibrant couple converted the Domaine to biodynamics, working in accordance to the cycle of the planets and the moon. The goal was simple: to encourage the vines to return to their natural state of being that had been masked by modern man’s agriculture and to encourage each vine to find harmony and balance. Barmès Buecher is a Domaine with a unique energy and harmony. Geneviève and François, aided by their children, Sophie and Maxime, have sixteen hectares of vines that each year produce wines that respond to the ebb and flow of Mother Nature and which always carry the Barmès signature. A bottle of Barmès Buecher is the result of carefully orchestrated work that occurs day in and day out 365 days a year with the sole goal of extracting the truest and purest expression of varietal, vintage, and terroir.

This ‘Clos’ (42 ares) sits on a 40-50 % slope of granite terrain at an altitude of 350 to 400 meters overlooking the village of Wettolsheim.
This stunning setting is surrounded by woodland creating a fresh and cool microclimate. This combination of geological and climatic factors results in a remarkable wine with crystalline and saline notes.
