GEWURZTRAMINER 'CUVÉE DE LA PREMIÉRE NEIGE' AIMÉ STENTZ 2022 DESCRIPTION

The Gewurztraminer 'Cuvée de la Premiere Neige' from Aimè Stenz is a white wine of great density and assured charm. Imbued with the magical air that pervades the Alsatian soil, this Gewurztraminer is the fruit of vineyard work based on organic farming methods. The wines made by Aimè Stenz aim for the highest level of quality, achieved by letting the terroir speak and letting the grape variety express itself in its typicality. The result is labels of acute finesse and a complex profile of rare intensity.

The 'Cuvèe de la Premiere Neige' is pure Gewurztraminer grapes. They come from vineyards characterised by soil rich in limestone and clay. Harvesting is carried out strictly by hand and allows the best bunches to be selected when picking. They are transported to the cellar using small crates, which limit damage to the grapes on the way. Here the whole bunches are softly pressed, and the must obtained is left to macerate for a few hours. Alcoholic fermentation is triggered spontaneously by the activity of indigenous yeasts. It then matures for approximately 12 months in contact with the fine lees. The result is an Alsatian expression of the highest level, able to compete with the region's best-known and most popular labels.

Aimè Stenz Gewurztraminer 'Cuvèe de la Premiere Neige' shows a brilliant golden yellow colour in the glass. On the nose, hints of exotic fruit, rose, spices, citrus, and candied fruit emerge to define its complexity. In the mouth, it reveals its decisive structure and enveloping softness, accompanied by a fresh, savoury vein. The taste is marked by fruit, managed in balance with the mineral trait that complements the aromatic personality of this territorial white. It is an excellent companion for a rich, elegant and classy dinner.
