Mittnacht Frères 2007 Rosacker Grand Cru Riesling (Alsace)
- Cellar Selection
- $43
Mineral and stone flavors abound, with perfumed aromas and fruit totally textured by the terroir. White currant fruits are here, built around a firm core and piled with acidity. Will benefit from aging for several more years, but can be enjoyed now.

Mittnacht Frères 2009 Les Petits Grains Pinot Gris (Alsace)
- $24
Full and attractively spicy, this is also elegant even in its richness. There is weighty lychee, Chinese gooseberries and softness rather than sweetness. It feels rich and full in the mouth.

Mittnacht Frères 2009 Les Fossiles Riesling (Alsace)
- $20
Big. ripe and generous, showing some mineral character while also having concentrated apricot, peach and pineapple flavors, leavened with honey and layers of acidity. Like all fine Rieslings, this needs to age. Hold for at least four years.

Mittnacht Frères NV White (Crémant d'Alsace)
- Online Exclusive
- $23
A richer than usual Crémant, ripe and full-bodied, with great pear and ripe apple flavors over soft acidity. There is a delicious mouthfeel, very mellifluous and rounded, with just the right acidity to give final crispness.

Mittnacht Frères 2009 Les Terres Blanches Gewürztraminer (Alsace)
- $26
This is a wine that doesn’t mess with niceties, but is right in your face. Intensely perfumed, almost a caricature of Gewürz, this is rich, moving into sweetness, concentrated and very spicy.

Mittnacht Frères 2009 Terre d’Etoiles Pinot Blanc (Alsace)
- $18
Classic, soft, easy and broad Pinot Blanc. There is an attractive buttery character to go with the peach and lime flavors. The wine is ripe, with pure fruit and a final tang of acidity.

Mittnacht Frères 2009 Cuvée Gyotaku White (Alsace)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
A blend of Pinot Blanc and Auxerrois created to go with Japanese food, Gyotaku is a soft, easy wine, very balanced and harmonious, with just a light hint of sweetness and spice. Definitely a wine for sushi. Screw cap.
