Ruhlmann Cuvée Jean-Charles 2009 AOC Alsace, France $19.95 (249631) 12.5% alcohol Hand picked and whole-berry pressed, this value-packed beauty dishes up an amazing array of heady aromas with honeyed peach, spiced tropical fruit and citrus predominant. Racy and boisterous on the palate there’s a riveting spine of acidity riding tangy lemon and sharp pineapple while ripe tropical fruit provides balance and a sweet and tang experience. It finishes in a blaze of lip-smacking flavour. Mussels steamed in white wine or spicy Asian would pair well. (Vic Harradine) |
