Domaine Thomas AOC Alsace Grand Cru Kafferkopf Riesling Domaine Saint Damien medium-bodied palate with smoky subtletiesIt opens with aromas of lemon zest, lime blossom, and ripe orchard fruit, layered with hints of white peach, honey, and flinty minerality. On the palate, it is dry, precise, and structured, showing flavors of citrus peel, green apple, and subtle floral notes, supported by taut acidity and a mineral backbone. As it evolves, delicate undertones of beeswax, wet stone, and gentle spice emerge, adding depth and complexity.
