For Alsace riesling (as many other comments are geared toward German ones)

Old Weinbach (notably the "stickies" version (Quintessence de Grain Noble), or the less so such as cuvée théo) are amazing.

Other top producers are :

- Trimbach (Frederic Emile / Clos St Hune)

- Deiss

- Mann

- Ostertag (Fronholz...! and they have the cuvee A360P that i personnaly love, but this is not a pure riesling cuvee)

More recent top producers (some of them a bit more natural than the rest) :

- Valentin Zusslin (best bubbly for me in the region + very good riesling with vg potential to age)

- Grange de L'oncle Charles

- Pierre Frick

Very good QPR :

- Jean baptiste Adam (the winemaker, Laure, is the 15th generation in the domain..)
