The 2022 Domaine Ostertag Riesling L’Exutoire HR7 is a distinctive French white wine from Alsace, crafted by the renowned Ostertag family. Produced from Riesling, this wine reflects the region's expressive terroir and the grape's natural ability to combine vibrant acidity with mineral complexity. Its anticipated aromas reveal fresh lime, ripe lemon, green apple and white peach, complemented by delicate notes of citrus blossom, dried herbs and wet stone.
On the palate, it is expected to be medium-bodied with lively acidity and a concentrated, finely textured mouthfeel. Flavours of juicy grapefruit, lemon zest, ripe pear and yellow apple unfold alongside hints of savoury herbs and stony minerality. Its bright citrus character is balanced by subtle richness and elegant structure, leading to a long, precise finish with lingering mineral and citrus notes.
