“A subtle wine that will be interesting to watch as it develops. (Yves Beck)”

“[...] Well-defined, the bouquet is above all fresh, with notes of pine needles and white pepper. As it opens up, the bouquet reveals notes of yellow fruit and a floral touch. Linear in character, the wine has subtle bitter notes that linger in the background. The salinity underscores the crispness evident from the first sip. [...] It has the substance to support a bit of aging.” (Yves Beck 2024)

About the wine:

This blend was aged in demi-muids and barrels. 25% of the Gewurztraminer underwent maceration. The bouquet is well-defined, showcasing freshness above all, with notes of pine needles and white pepper. Upon aeration, the bouquet reveals notes of yellow fruit and a floral touch. Linear, the wine features subtle bitter notes that linger in the background. The salinity underscores the structure evident from the attack. A subtle wine that will be interesting to follow as it evolves. It possesses the substance suitable for some aging. 2025–2035
