A first from Albert Boxler! This parcel, planted on the steep granite slopes of the Sommerberg grand cru behind the Boxler home and cellars in Niedermorschwihr, is typically blended, but in 2014 the wine was too interesting to not be bottled separately. Drinking beautifully already, it can also, of course, be tucked away for future enjoyment. Vintage 2014 in Alsace gave Rieslings of impressive power, purity, and dry extract. Scheibenberg brings the additional qualities of finesse, balance, and pure pleasure.
