Our winemaker follows with a special care the rules of the legislation of the Appellation Alsace. He controls the maturity in the selected plots until the harvest, which usually starts beginning or mid of September. The bunches are crushed in our pneumatic press on lowpressure programs. After fermentation and vinification, the wine stays many months on fine lies, in tank, in order to gain in structure, before bottling end of spring.
The bouquet, very concentrated, is marked by notes of exotic fruit and orange, and is delicately peppery. The attack is full and rich, the soil is revealed by the powerful and elegant character of this wine. A wine that will not leave you indifferent. Serve as an aperitif or a Foie-gras. Goes well with exotic food, and especially Asian food.
