The smooth, bold attack brings out the full power of this Gewürztraminer. Intense flavors of lychee, exotic fruits, and citrus intertwine on the nose and on the palate with notes of sweet spices. It embodies all the classic characteristics of a Rhine Gewürztraminer!

About the estate:

Biodynamic farming always takes a few years to show results, both in terms of root development and soil health, and Michel Chapoutier knows this well—he purchased this estate in 2009 with a few friends who are connoisseurs of fine wines. Located in northern Alsace, on a vein of blue schist, the estate is gradually finding its footing. The single-vineyard Rieslings (Burg, Buehl, and Fels) are beginning to reveal the subtle nuances of their soil.
