Trimbach is a favorite, as is muscat from Alsace…..I was told once that Alsace is the “standard” for well made muscats. Looks like you’ve a nice chill on that one too! Cheers.
I loved the 2022 Bodegas Jorge Ordoñez 'Botani' Old Vines Moscatel. Considering the very different climates, would you say that there are significant differences between the Botani and Trimbach's?
So great to watch this as I’m working on a bottle of 2016 Zind-Humbrecht dry Muscat. Alsatian whites rapidly becoming my go-to.
Would love to hear your thoughts on blends, like Schoech Harmonie R and the Deiss Complantation. The former (spectacular and age-worth) is from Schoech’s plot at the top of the Rangen de Thann vineyard..

Just visited Trimbach a couple of weeks ago. Their Clos St Hune is amazing!
Every time I see one of your videos, the only thing I'd like to do is try IMMEDIATELY that wine 😂

When I smell Muscat from Alsace, I feel like a bee. It’s truly fragrant🐝.

Alsace is a region I've not paid nearly the attention it deserves. I'll be diving deep into it.
