In the mouth
The palate echoes the finesse of the nose with admirable precision. Honeyed fruit flavours are supported by sufficient acidity to prevent heaviness, finishing with a lingering sweetness.
On the nose
Expressive bouquet of yellow stone fruits and honey, interwoven with floral notes that suggest both orchard blossom and exotic florality characteristic of the variety.
On the eye
Pale golden yellow with subtle green highlights
The wine's natural sweetness and aromatic profile make it a natural companion to Asian cuisine—sushi and dim sum are particularly rewarding pairings. It also complements fruit-based desserts, particularly berry tarts, and works well with blue cheeses where the sweetness provides balance.

DOMAINE ALBERT BOXLER
Based in Niedermorschwihr in the Haut-Rhin, Domaine Albert Boxler farms 14 hectares of steep granite hillsides under the Alsace appellation, with yields deliberately held to 30–35 hl/ha. The Boxler family has been rooted in this village since 1672; Albert Boxler made the estate's first domaine-bottling in 1946, a standard his grandson Jean has upheld since taking the helm in 1996. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this estate for the precision, tension and mineral drive of its whites — Riesling above all — drawn from lean granitic soils that give the wines a clarity and backbone rarely matched in Alsace. A discreet but thoroughly reliable address for lovers of great dry whites.
