Tasting - "Willm Alsace Grand Cru Riesling Kirchberg de Barr 2011"

Variety: 100% Riesling
Region: Alsace
Country: France
Year: 2011
Price: $20.95
Shop/wine critic/winery review: Vintage Wine Cellar/ Courtney/ With a great intensity and structure, this is a wine that all texture and potential. It's expressive with white fruits and perfume, but there's richness that's still to come. Drink from 2016 and see how the minerality and acidity will come into balance.
Your Review: This was a very deceiving wine with a sweat smell but a very blandish and bitter taste. This was a very tricky wine to put a flavor on it but it had a hint of pear which was even hard to distinguish.
