In 2021, the late season was cool which allowed us to harvest in October in perfect conditions. "Fruity, sunny", despite the climatic hazards, the 2022 vintage produces wines with very good performance.
Consequently, these two vintages allowed us to achieve the level of concentration usually sought in the Gewurztraminer du Fronholz, traditionally harvested in late harvest at the estate, almost continuously for 30 years.
We chose to blend these two wines to create harmony between the dazzling freshness of 2021 as well as the charm and elegance of the 2022 vintage.
The harvest took place in mid-October as usual and the wines kept a balance of 13.5% alcohol, with a final level of 30 g/L of remaining sugars. The result is a sweet wine where the deliciousness of the fruit is invigorated by the saline precision of the Fronholz which blurs the sweet character and allows surprising pairings, for example with sweet/savory curries or poultry, a fair dose of sweet spices, and others more classic with certain cheeses or even foie gras.
The label, like all those on the estate, is the work of our favorite artist Christine Colin – Arthur Osterta

Alsatian wine
Alsace is a unique wine region in North Eastern France, bordering Germany and having also been under German control for much of its existence. Due to this influence, unlike other French regions, wines from Alsace are mostly single varietal bottlings and are also labelled with the variety. They also are legally required to use a tall slimmer bottle called flûtes d'Alsace, that is also commonly seen with German wines.
Almost all the wine produced in the region is white (90%) except for Pinot Noir which is used mainly for sparkling wine. Alsace is most known for its Riesling, which is dry, fresh and floral in its youth but develops complex mineral and flint character with age. Following behind is Gewurztraminer with signature spice and beautiful lychee aromatics. The smell of this wine is intoxicating, it is used to make dry but also late harvest dessert wines. Pinot Gris is also a prized variety of the region with its combination of crisp acidity and savory spice as well as ripe stone fruit flavours.
In Autumn humidity builds up to facilitate the development of “noble rot” to produce late-picked sweet wines. In Alsace there are two classifications for late harvest wines: Vendange Tardive (VT) and Sélection de Grains Nobles (SGN). VT for regular late harvest wines and SGN meaning grapes affected by noble rot.
Other varieties grown here include Pinot Blanc, Muscat, Auxerrois, Chasselas and Sylvaner.
