liquoreux

"This is not the first sweet wine from the estate to be noticed by our jurors. This one rises to the top. A golden yellow color with amber highlights, a concentrated, powerful, complex nose of candied quince and honey: an announcement of rare richness, which is confirmed on the palate. Density, power, opulence, all point to great substance, not forgetting the hint of freshness that gives dynamism and length. (Residual sugars: 202 g/l, 50 cl bottles)" (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2022). A holiday delight!

About the wine:

This isn't the first of the estate's sweet wines to be noticed by our jurors. This one rises to the top. A golden yellow color with amber highlights, a concentrated, powerful, complex nose of candied quince and honey: the promise of a rare richness, confirmed on the palate. Density, power, opulence, all point to great substance, not forgetting the hint of freshness that gives dynamism and length. (Residual sugars: 202 g/l, 50 cl bottles).

About the domain :

In 2006, oenologist Pierre Scharsch bought this old estate (17th century) in the Barr region, restructured the vineyard and began converting the estate to organic farming in 2016. The estate now covers 11 ha.
