Meyer-Fonné’s Dorfburg saturates the senses with heady aromas of rose petal, mouth-filling richness, and tantalizing sweetness

Meyer-Fonné’s 2022 has a floral, perfumed nose—perhaps from a splash of Muscat?—and a soft mid-palate with green apple and pear—surely a sign of Pinot Blanc in there.

This Riesling “Katz,” as we call it, is a beautifully linear and chiseled style of Riesling, fresh and pure.

From the exceedingly fine and elegant nose to the creamy and lacy texture, the overall balance and touch, and its hint of salty freshness, this wine shows how understated, finessed, and downright glorious dry Pinot Gris can be in Alsace.

A slightly sweeter style of Gewurztraminer with opulent aromas and flavors to pair with any kind of spicy food.

That grapes can be cajoled and fashioned to make such a liquid is miraculous. This aroma is beyond belief.

Serve it to friends as an apéritif and listen for wows, because this wine’s perfume provokes wows.

Meyer’s Riesling Réserve is a mélange of different terroirs around his domaine in Katzenthal, and is a precise, dry, minerally Riesling loaded with character.

This bottle gives some of my favorite grand cru Rieslings a run for their money with a nose evoking peach skin and pear and a palate that ripples with fresh acidity.

This wine showcases everything I seek for in a dry Gewurztraminer. The nose shows pure, delicate aromas of fresh lychee and exotic fruit.
