Winery - Domaine Marcel Deiss
* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
As is common with many of the Deiss wines, this carries no indication of varietal, just the name of the vineyard, in this case a small parcel between Bergheim and Ribeauvillé. With its sweetness and richness, this has characteristics of noble rot, but the spiciness of Pinot Gris shows through. There is also great finishing acidity. Imported by New Castle Imports.

This pure Pinot Noir is ripe, smoky, toasty and with a touch of earthiness. Fresh acidity shows through the flavors of ripe strawberries and leaves vibrant red fruits on the palate. Imported by Lauber Imports.

An intense, sweet wine, this is packed full of orange flavors, citrus fruits and a touch of smokiness. A great wine, it’s a delicious mix of fruits and mineral characters from the limestone soil of the Grasberg vineyard. Imported by Lauber Imports.

Hints of petrol on the nose open in this rich, intense wine, which has layers of smoky aromas over flavors of ripe lychees and smooth tannins. The finish seems to last forever. Imported by Lauber Imports.

A wine packed with noble rot, giving richness rather than sweetness. An intoxicating blend of smokiness and almonds mixes with flavors of citrus zest and toast in this complex, concentrated wine. From the tiny Huebuhl vineyard in Bergheim. Impressive. Imported by Lauber Imports.

This wine is also easier and more approachable than some of Jean-Michel Deiss’s wines, open and generous, but with a dry, firmly spicy aftertaste. Imported by New Castle Imports.

A clear choice for those who prefer mineral expression over fruit character, this Pinot opens with notes of seasoned leather, tar and cigarette tobacco. The concentrated palate is dense; notes of smoke lead to a long, earthy finish shot through with drying tannins.
