Note di degustazione
Certified biodynamic (Biodyvin). Owner/winemaker Olivier Humbrecht provides lots of technical data: bottling date August 2022; RS 4.2 g/l; TA 6.1 g/l, pH 3.35; yield 16 hl/ha. Average vine age 51 years. Limestone (Muschelkalk) soils. Richly fruited and just a touch of nicely smoky reduction. Rich yet cool on the palate. Pure Gewurztraminer in a restrained style, with great length. Tightly structured with no fat. Creamy, textured aftertaste. (JH)

The 2021 Gewurztraminer Clos Windsbuhl is from older plots of Gewurztraminer in the upper part of Windsbuhl on Triassic limestone. Its nose displays honey, lemon-edged rose petals and fresh ginger. While the nose signals sweetness, the palate is bone-dry, super-textured and shows full-on pithiness, shimmering with bitter almond and marzipan. The wine is dry, playing with your senses - a fantastic game that sets the tastebuds on high alert. The lemon zest finish is full of spice and really long. Wow. (Bone-dry)
