13$ at K&L. I like whites from Alsace--most of the time I get a huge kick out of them and they're delicious. It's not that this wine isn't--it's just that it didn't really reach out and grab me by the throat. There's certainly nothing wrong with the red/Fuji apple-ish and lemon flavors, nor with the subtle bit of mineral that sneaks in on the tail end of the rather Rubenesque frame, it's just that I didn't get all that excited by this wine. I definitely preferred the Rose Cremant d'Alsace that we had last summer from Charles Baur; I believe it was the same price. C
