Wine Advocate-Parker : The 2013 Burg is a field blend of classical Alsatian grape varieties grown in a sheltered, south-facing vineyard in a cool, late-ripening terroir on colored marl soils with imbedded gypsum. This is a pure, finessed and firmly structured Burg that is tight but transparent, finessed and vital on the palate with its full body lifted by mineral finesse and lingering salinity.
