White 'GW' Du Vin aux Liens

The White "GW" Du Vin aux Liens is a Gewurztraminer produced in Alsace, from a collaboration between the 'négoce' Du Vin aux Liens, which promotes small biodynamic producers, and the 'domaine' Albert Hertz. It macerates on the skins for 12 hours, a technique that intensifies the fragrant sensations of the aromatic grape variety and gives a pleasant fatness to the sip. Fragrant hints of macerated flowers and tropical fruit meet the mineral sensations typical of Alsace, reminiscent of flint. The palate impresses with fragrance and roundness, with a rustic but balanced sip of great pleasantness

WHITE 'GW' DU VIN AUX LIENS DESCRIPTION

The White "GW" Du Vin aux Liens is an excellent Gewurztraminer produced in the renowned Alsace region, the result of a collaboration between the 'négoce' Du Vin aux Liens and the 'domaine' Albert Hertz. This wine represents an example of commitment to biodynamics, as Du Vin aux Liens' philosophy revolves around promoting small producers who embrace this agricultural approach. The uniqueness of this label is also expressed through skin maceration, a process that enhances the characteristic fragrances of the grape variety and imparts a pleasant fullness to the palate.

The roots of the "GW" Du Vin aux Liens are anchored in the lands of Alsace, where Gewürztraminer grapes are cultivated with passion and dedication. Harvesting, meticulously destemmed and handpicked, is just the beginning of a craftsmanship process. Extended pressing with a 12-hour skin maceration is a technique that emphasizes the aromatic characteristics of Gewurztraminer. Vinification and aging take place in oak barrels for 24 months, contributing to the complexity and structure of the wine. The choice to limit sulfur input and not filter the wine highlights the desire to preserve the purity and authenticity of the product.

The Du Vin aux Liens Gewurztraminer unfolds in the glass with a characteristic aromatic profile, dominated by notes of macerated flowers and tropical fruit, with mineral nuances reminiscent of flintstone. On the palate, this wine surprises with its fragrance and roundness, offering a rustic yet balanced sip of great pleasure. The finish is persistent, enriched with fantastic minerality. This Gewurztraminer, dry, rich, and complex, reveals notes of white fruit such as peach and pear, alongside citrus zest and acacia flowers. The freshness accompanies the finish, making this wine ideal for pairings with selected cheeses and gourmet dishes based on fish or white meats.
