Part of the Michel Léon range — named in tribute to Michel and Léon Laugel, former owners of the historic house now home to Arthur Metz in Marlenheim. This Riesling shows the variety's hallmark freshness and purity, with lively aromas of lime, green apple, and white blossom, a gentle mineral edge, and a clean, dry, citrus-driven finish.
This is everyday Alsace Riesling done right — bone dry, mineral, and versatile enough to be the house white you keep stocked for any seafood dinner.
