Muscat Goldert, Domaine Zind-Humbrecht 2007

The Zind-Humbrecht 2007 Muscat d'Alsace Goldert displays faintly fungal notes analogous to the Portabellas that I smelled on their Herrenweg bottling, but increasingly as the wine aired, lemon, cress, wintergreen, and a musky hint of narcissus came to dominate. Pungently zesty and herbal, it displays chalky and saline mineral streaks that add it the interest and invigoration of a penetrating, dry, lip-smacking, saliva-inducing finish. This will be worth utilizing for 8-10 years.
