Robert Parker

"The Gewurztraminer Ostenberg opens with a clean, ripe, and rich nose with smoky and delicate aromas of broken rock. Rich and juicy on the palate, with beautiful, luscious fruit, soft but elegant acidity, fine tannins, and good salinity, this full-bodied and aromatic Gewurz reveals a soft but complex finish with beautiful minerality and tannic grip.

Bettane & Desseauve

Rated estate (2017 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

Étienne Loew is courageously fighting to raise awareness of the little-known terroirs of Westhalten, where very few winegrowers bottle their wine. Careful vinification and long aging (mainly in stainless steel vats) produce pure, precise wines, with the Rieslings being very dry.

Rated estate (2017 guide) 2 stars (These very large estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).

About the estate:

For several years now, this estate, skillfully managed by Etienne Loew, has won us over with its consistent production and excellent wines. He has found the key to fully unlocking the nuances of the soils around Westhoffen, and defends this somewhat isolated vineyard like a guardian watching over his ramparts! His touch is sure, his thinking open, and his wines are distinguished by their elegance. A winery worth discovering.
