Region
The Alsace region is a thin strip of steep hillside vineyards is located in northeast France. It is protected by the Vosges mountains to the west, Alsace is the driest region of France, a factor that compensates for the northerly location. Its wines were the first single varietals in France to be honoured with Appellation Controllée status 70 or more years ago. They are wines recognised for their rich aromatics and distinct character and are an ideal accompaniment with food
Tasting Notes
The marl and granite rich vineyard around the Haut Rhin town of Ammerschwir produces full aromatic Gewürztraminer. The nose is fragrant with a subtle perfume of roses, lychees and cinnamon. Full of captivating flavours of exotic tropical and stone fruits with a hint of Turkish delight develop on the palate. The tropical fruits are well balanced with a dry acidity, candied fruit and mineral nuances.
Food
A perfect match for rich liver pate, Asian cuisine including stir fry with chile and fragrant herbs, as well as apple tart and strong blue cheeses.
