Tasting notes

Deep yellow gold. The nose is unmistakable: lychee, rose petal, candied grapefruit and ginger, with a dusting of sweet spice. The palate is rich and unctuous, its soft texture carrying a touch of residual sweetness offset by a gentle bitter grip on the sides of the tongue. The finish is warm and long, scented with rosewater and crystallised citrus.

About this wine

Turckheim is the village at the mouth of the Munster valley where the Humbrecht family has its cellar, and this bottling draws on vines around the commune planted on gravel and granitic sand. Olivier Humbrecht farms everything biodynamically and bottles by gravity.

Grapes are pressed whole and fermented with indigenous yeasts in old foudres, with no added enzymes or acidity and no filtration. Gewurztraminer here keeps a little residual sugar, which the estate treats as part of the grape's natural balance rather than a style decision.

Exuberantly aromatic, broad on the palate and a classic introduction to Alsace's most perfumed variety.
