Kuentz Bas, Riesling, Alsace 2021
Kuentz-Bas, a centuries-old, discreet, and unassuming estate, is capable of serious, grandiose wines. Yet what makes the domaine noteworthy—and worthy of our decades-long relationship—is how they excel in the art of the “everyday wine.” Their starters’ range, including this Riesling, is always a terrific value, made from sustainably farmed fruit, with minimal-intervention cellar practices. This kind of classic, energetic, aromatic Riesling is the house specialty here.
