Description:
Pungent and savoury with real savoury undertow. Perfumed but with rigour. A great advocate of biodynamics. Very long. 14 g/l RS Interesting bacon fat nose. Lots of sweetness on the front palate but respectable acidity too. Fades a little fast but this is sprightly and refreshing and very friendly. And clean!

There are very few estates in Alsace that produce consistently high quality wine like Domaine Josmeyer. Located next to the beautiful town of Colmar, the family wine adventure began already back in 1854, and they have been producing stunning white wines ever since. All of the estate’s vineyards are cultivated according to biodynamic principles, including the Grand Cru vineyards Hengst and Brand. Jean Meyer, owner of Josmeyer, views winemaking as a form of art, which becomes evident in the design of the unique labels, created by local artists for Josmeyer and an expression of the wines. Typical for Alsace and the terrior, Josmeyer produces stunning Riesling, world-class Gewurztraminer and Pinot Blanc.
