Clos du Zahnacker

The grapes are harvested exclusively by hand. The three grape varieties are harvested at the same time, pressed together and then vinified at the same time. Whole bunches are pressed in pneumatic presses to avoid any crushing and to respect the raw material as much as possible. The juices are separated to optimise the quality of our wines. After static settling, the wines ferment under temperature control at around 21°-22°, and are then matured on fine lees for 9 to 11 months. After filtration, the wines are bottled all at once and matured in our cellars for a minimum of 3 to 5 years.

The colour is golden, the nose intense and complex. At first, the Riesling predominates. This is followed by the smokiness of the Pinot Gris and the rose and spice aromas of the Gewurztraminer. The palate is well-balanced, with an explosion of citrus fruit (lemon, tangerine), peach, mirabelle plum and spices (pepper and coriander). The ending is long and delicate.
