    Description Gewurztraminer "Les Jardins" Sélection de Grains Nobles

    Estate

    Domaine Ostertag is a family estate recognized in Alsace for its rigorous biodynamic approach and commitment to expressing the purest terroir characteristics. Located in the heart of Alsace, the estate has received numerous distinctions, reflecting the high quality of its wines.

    Vineyard

    The vineyard spans several plots in Alsace, where soils primarily composed of granite and gneiss provide ideal conditions for Gewurztraminer. The semi-continental climate favors slow, steady ripening of the grapes, essential for aromatic complexity.

    Wine

    This 2017 Gewurztraminer from Domaine Ostertag is a white wine distinguished by its aromatic richness and balance. It faithfully reflects the typicity of the grape variety and the peculiarities of the Alsatian terroir. While no official Parker or RVF scores are noted, the wine is consistently recognized for its quality.

    Vintage

    The 2017 vintage in Alsace was marked by relatively dry weather and significant temperature variation, promoting harmonious flavor concentration and fresh acidity. This Gewurztraminer expresses both maturity and vivacity.

    Vinification & Aging

    Vinification is carried out with rigorous control, favoring slow fermentations in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve aromatic freshness. The aging also occurs in tanks to maintain fruit purity and the vibrant character typical of the grape.
