Oberer Altenberg White 2023,
Domaine Einhart
A powerful and refined Gewurztraminer from a unique sandy terroir
The Oberer Altenberg 2023, from Domaine Einhart, is an exceptional Gewurztraminer that expresses all the richness of its terroir. Grown on sandy soils, this organic AOP Alsace white wine is the result of direct pressing followed by fermentation with indigenous yeasts. Aged for one month in stainless steel vats on fine lees, it embodies the finesse and generosity of the grape variety, enhanced by the influence of a sunny vintage.
A captivating and structured tasting
On the nose, the Oberer Altenberg reveals an impressive aromatic complexity: delicate notes of candied citrus, lemon zest and pear mingle with floral touches of jasmine and white flower. On the palate, the attack is lively and precise, giving way to a silky and generous texture. A beautiful saline tension and a subtle minerality prolong the tasting, accompanied by a long finish, marked by aromas of flint and a brilliant freshness.
An exceptional wine for special occasions
Thanks to its elegance and complexity, the Oberer Altenberg 2023 is perfectly suited to gourmet meals and special occasions. It pairs brilliantly with seafood, shellfish and cooked fish, but also pairs well with more daring dishes such as truffles or roasted white meats. Its balance between freshness and intensity also makes it an ideal ally for creamy cheeses or fruit desserts.
Served between 8 and 10°C after decanting, this wine can be enjoyed today for its aromatic precision or kept for up to 5 years for an even richer development.
