Château d’Orschwihr 2008 Bollenberg Gewurztraminer

  1. $20
Sweet and perfumed, but with a sense of proportion despite its alcohol. It has fine ripe fruits, star fruit and mango prominent, while the acidity keeps the exuberance in check. The final flavor brings in fresh white fruits. For aging 4–5 years.  — R.V.  (10/1/2010)

Château d’Orschwihr 2001 Kessler Grand Cru Vendanges Tardives Riesling

  1. $45
Just assuming the wonderful flavors of mature Riesling, this wine still has hints of fresh white currants. The toast and smoke flavors are more dominant, with a core of minerality and acidity. Rich, rather than sweet.  — R.V.  (10/1/2010)

Château d’Orschwihr 2008 Zinnkoepfle Grand Cru Pinot Gris

  1. $23
Though not indicated as such on its label, this is a sweet wine. It has spiced, ripe fruit flavors, notably pear, which are deliciously laced with honey and cinnamon notes. There is also a fine streak of lively acidity that keeps this very fresh.  — R.V.  (12/31/2012)

Château d’Orschwihr 2009 Bollenberg Riesling

  1. $18
Steely, crisp, with a tight edge of green fruits. The structure is dominant at this stage in the development of this rapier-like wine. Age for 3–4 years.  — R.V.  (10/1/2010)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $20
Light acidity and a crisp green-fruited texture offer fine freshness in this bright wine. The acidity is a delicious streak in the not quite dry final flavor.  — R.V.  (10/1/2010)
