"Pure, varietally accurate aromas of rose petal, cinnamon, lichee and spiced meats, plus a whiff of exotic fruits. Sweet (25 g/l r.s.) but spicy and firm-edged, with very good intensity and harmonious acidity. Fresh flavors of lemon, grapefruit and white flowers complicated by smoke and spice notes. Finishes with a faint impression of tannins and sneaky persistence. I find this style of gewurztraminer very easy to drink."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Sheltered by the Vosges mountains, Alsace produces aromatic, mostly dry varietal whites - Riesling, Gewurztraminer and Pinot Gris - of exceptional purity and ageability.
