Wine Description:
Healthy, diverse soil allows vines to thrive, a goal achieved by working harmoniously with nature. Since 2009, the winery follows EU organic regulations. The Gewürztraminer grapes come from the Dürkheimer Abtsfronhof site, a historic vineyard over 1,000 years old, once owned by the Benedictine Abbey of Limburg and acquired by the Fitz family in 1823. Located in Bad Dürkheim, this vineyard, surrounded by a sandstone wall, offers a unique terroir and microclimate. The vines grow on loamy sand with high mineral content and Tertiary limestone. Perfectly ripe grapes undergo a 10-hour maceration, with cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks halted to retain residual sweetness.
Pros:
  • Rich and complex aromas of lychee

Cons:

Domaine Zind Humbrecht Gewürztraminer Alsace Turckheim comes the gravelly valley floor of Turckheim. Gewurztraminer has the potential to ripen to very high sugar level but needs some time to also ripen physiologically. Of all the cultivars planted in Alsace, Gewurztraminer is the one that struggles the most to change colour (véraison) and is the richest in polyphenols, hence the need of a warmer micro-climate and early ripening site, conditions found in Turckheim.

This highly aromatic white wine from Antonutti is produced using the Traminer Aromatico variety, known more commonly as Gewurztraminer. The grapes are sourced from the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, grown in on an alluvial and pebbly plain, in the west of the region. Grapes are destemmed and undergo a cold maceration for a short period before being gently pressed. The juice is transferred to temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks for the fermentation. The wine is aged in stainless steel tanks for around 6 months with frequent bâtonnage (lees stirring) prior to bottling to increase texture.
