Bildstoeckle 2012 Bruno Schueller

Image
An independent Alsatian producer. Mr Bruno Schuller in the commune of Husseren-les-Chateaux south west of Colmar. Since he was 18 years old has been working at Gerard Schueller Pere & Fills on 10 hectare of vineyards only 1ha dedicated to Pinot noir and two grand cru vineyards Eichberg and Pfersigberg in the commune of Eguisheim. However one of his most underground wine coming for the lieux-dit Bildstoeccklè on the town of Obermorschwihr in an exclusively calcareous soil. On e of the things really interesting me about this producers, often his wines do not pass the test of INAO; but this seems not worry this crazy artisan. This 2012 was close and reductive at the beginning but after a while we decanted it coming out delicate aromas of green Thea, ripe yellow peach, yellow plum with minerality always in tension, nervous and salty; great delicacy acidity. I bought 2 bottles one I will drink in 10 years time and I will back here to tell you how is ageing  ‪#‎ mineralwine‬   ‪#
