"(12.3% alcohol, 153 g/l r.s. and 7.3 acidity) Enticing yellow-tinged gold color. High-toned aromas of quince jelly, mandarin orange, honey, vanilla and spicy oak; this has the powerful botrytis character to support the new oak treatment. Wonderfully viscous and liqueur-like, with extraordinarily concentrated, pure flavors of apricot, orange peel, pear confiture and honey, complemented by subtle oakiness. The extremely long, lightly toasty finish shows superb mouthwatering acidity and juicy cut."

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.
