Description Gewurztraminer Grand Cru Schlossberg Sélection de Grains Nobles

Estate

Domaine Weinbach, located in Kaysersberg and founded in 1612, is a historic and leading estate in Alsace. Managed by the Faller family, the domaine practices biodynamic viticulture. It is renowned for producing expressive and precise wines. Sustainable methods emphasize soil health and minimal intervention. Internationally acclaimed, the estate consistently delivers high-quality terroir-driven wines.

Vineyard

The grapes come from a Grand Cru classified vineyard, with exceptional marl and limestone soils. The ideal sun exposure and semi-continental climate favor full phenolic ripening. The temperature variation allows a slow aromatic development. Biodynamic practices enhance vineyard vitality. Yields are kept low to ensure concentration and complexity.

Wine

This 2013 Gewurztraminer Grand Cru from Domaine Weinbach is richly aromatic and complex. It showcases the distinctive character of the variety on a noble terroir. It balances power and elegance with floral and spicy notes. Rated 94+ by Robert Parker, it reflects exceptional craftsmanship. A refined wine with depth and freshness.

Vintage

2013 was a low-yield but high-quality vintage in Alsace, especially for aromatic varietals. Cool autumn weather promoted slow maturation and preserved acidity. Wines from this year show fine balance and structured freshness. It is a classic vintage, suited to expressing terroir and varietal purity. Gewurztraminer benefited particularly well from this profile.

Vinification & Aging

Grapes are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness. Fermentation occurs naturally with indigenous yeasts in old oak foudres. Aging on fine lees adds texture and depth. No chaptalization is performed. Bottling is done with minimal filtration to retain authenticity.
