orange wine

“A Gewürztraminer that has really come into its own—much to our delight!”

An orange wine made exclusively from Gewürztraminer, revealing soft spicy notes with slightly smoky undertones. The varietal characteristics are evident, with subtle floral notes. Pair it with sweet-and-salty dishes! (Orange wine is a white wine made through maceration.)

Rated estate (2020 guide) 1*Star (A high-quality, recommendable wine that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the estate:

The new generation of Moltès—Stéphane and Mickaël, who have been at the helm of the estate since 1995—have since converted the vineyard to organic farming. Unsurprisingly, this has given the wines greater structure and tension, and they now stand out at our annual tastings. This is just the beginning of a new chapter for this estate, founded in 1930 by Antoine Moltès.

Guide Hachette des vins

Rated estate (2022 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines are regularly recognized by the guide)

About the estate:

A winery located about ten kilometers south of Colmar. Antoine Moltès began selling his first wines in 1925, and his son Roland explored the terroirs. Settling here at the turn of the century, Mickaël and Stéphane built a new winery and gradually shifted toward organic farming, beginning the vineyard’s conversion in 2012; they also expanded the property from 17 to 27 hectares in 2019 and established a wine trading company to broaden their portfolio.
