Robert Parker

“The Gewurztraminer Ostenberg opens with a clean, ripe, and rich nose featuring subtle, smoky aromas of crushed rock. Rich and juicy on the palate, with luscious fruit, soft yet elegant acidity, fine tannins, and good salinity, this full-bodied and aromatic Gewurz reveals a smooth yet complex finish with lovely minerality and a lingering tannic grip. ” (Wine Advocate 2017 – Robert Parker)

Bettane & Desseauve

Rated estate (2017 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

Étienne Loew is courageously working to raise awareness of the little-known terroirs of Westhalten, where very few winemakers bottle their own wine. Meticulous winemaking and extended aging (primarily in stainless steel tanks) result in pure, precise wines; the Rieslings are very dry.

Rated estate (2017 guide): 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, 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 captivated us with the consistency of its production and the exceptional quality of its wines. He has mastered the art of fully unlocking the nuances of the soils around Westhoffen, and he safeguards this somewhat isolated vineyard as a sentinel would watch over his ramparts! His approach is confident, his thinking open-minded, and his wines stand out for their elegance. A winery worth discovering.
