"It's like taking a stroll through a garden full of a thousand flavors!"

This 100% Pinot Noir harmoniously blends a multitude of flavors. The nose opens with notes of ground hazelnut, blueberry, and raspberry. This is followed by notes of magnolia blossom, menthol, milk chocolate, and ripe pear. The wine is characterized by a full-bodied palate, a light, airy touch, and a long, indulgent finish. A wine to share spontaneously!

Rated estate (2024 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

Upon returning to the estate in 1999, Matthieu Boesch quickly decided to make the transition to organic and biodynamic farming, earning certification as early as 2006. However, while these sound practices are one thing, it took more time for the wines to find their balance in the glass—for the added acidity and tension to develop and harmonize over time. For the past two vintages, we’ve found that this is now the case. Good news!

About the wine:

Shown in red: the healthy and delicious Les Jardins will soon be accessible

About the estate:

As passionate advocates of biodynamics for over ten years, Matthieu and his wife Marie represent the eleventh generation of the Léon Boesch estate, located in the heart of the Vallée Noble. Here, the Zinnkoepflé grand cru is now dedicated exclusively to Gewürztraminer, with the aim of establishing it as a benchmark for a dry, full-bodied style. The estate has been practicing biodynamic agriculture since 2000, and the winery, inaugurated in Westhalten in 2010, is a bioclimatic model. The wines possess depth and perfectly express the region’s terroirs.
