Grown on Tertiary marl, this Gewurztraminer stands out for its lovely tension and refined bitterness, marked by citrus notes. Nevertheless, the grape variety retains its rich, indulgent character. Delightful notes of passion fruit, candied lemon, and ginger are clearly distinguishable on the nose. A beautiful Gewurztraminer! Sealed with a screw cap.

About the estate:
Biodynamic farming always takes a few years to show results, both in terms of root development and soil health, and Michel Chapoutier knows this well—he purchased this estate in 2009 with a few friends who are connoisseurs of fine wines. Located in northern Alsace, on a vein of blue schist, the estate is gradually finding its footing. The single-vineyard Rieslings (Burg, Buehl, and Fels) are beginning to reveal the subtle nuances of their soil.
