Tasting : This Gewurztraminer is distinguishable to the nose and has an intense typicality of Grand Cru, mixing candied fruit aromas and spices. It has a rather sweet attack in the mouth, followed by a very nice acidity. It has aromas of a very ripe fruit, see the candied. The acidity, the alcohol and the sugar form an ideal balance for this wine. A beautiful depth can also be noted, a slight minerality, and it all ends with a remarkable length.
Food and wine pairing : It fits well as an aperitif, with foie gras, or desserts. But this Gewurztraminer is also a gastronomical wine. It combines perfectly with the topped dishes and with sweet and salty mixtures.
