The tasting |

Bright light yellow. |
|
| | |
|
Intense aromatics with notes of rose blossom, candied ginger and lychee, unmistakable typicity. |
|
| | |
|
A fine balance between high concentration and the right mineral tension provided by this 2021 vintage. On the palate, the finish is fresh and easy to digest, with almost endless persistence and a marked return of rose flavors. |

Originating from three superb limestone terroirs around Turckheim and Katzenthal, the 2021 white Alsace Gewurztraminer Reserve is a finely crafted and precise cuvée with just the right amount of mineral tension. Its intensely aromatic profile, featuring notes of blooming roses, candied ginger, and lychee, is unmatched in typicity. Combining high concentration with the delightful tart freshness of the vintage, this well-balanced wine will delight fans of the grape variety! The finish is equally captivating, digestible, and of great persistence, with a pronounced return of floral flavors. Rated 95/100 by the Committee. |
