Domaine Achillée 'Chrysalide' Alsace, 2021 apples Jack-O's cinnamon and nutmeg aromas

Jack-O's cinnamon and nutmeg aromas recall memories of freshly baked pumpkin pie

A classic petroleum nose followed up by citrus and minerality on the tongue

or summer pasta

try it with some beer-battered fish tacos and a cabbage slaw

and 15% Riesling is a riot

Domaine Achillée 'Chrysalide' Alsace, 2021 apples Jack-O's cinnamon and nutmeg aromasThis wine is made from 50% Riesling, 23% Gewrztraminer, 15% Pinot Blanc, and 12% Pinot Noir. Each of the grapes is harvested on the same day and goes through an 8 hour maceration before being pressed. The wine is aromatically herbaceous, and full of ripe citrus, tangerine, and hints of ginger on the palate. Pair it with grilled octopus over boiled potatoes, seasoned with paprika and good olive oil.
