2021 Willm Gewurztraminer
The Alsace region offers the perfect growing conditions for white grapes, particularly Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, and Muscat. Alsace is renowned for making not only prestige wines, but also ones of very good value.
In 1896 the Willm family founded the Willm wine estate, based in the village of Barr in beautiful Alsace region, not far from Strasbourg. It gained fame both for exceptional Gewurztraminer that was exported globally, and also for selling wonderful local snail dishes.
With local sustainable growers and with their own grand cru vineyards Willm spans the spectrum of Alsace wines from bargain joys to the greatest aromatic wines in the world.
This lovely Gewurztraminer showcases delicate golden-yellow tints. It offers a pleasant, pronounced aromatic profile featuring exotic fruits. The fragrance is striking and unfolds with opulent notes of exotic fruits like passion fruit, pineapple, and lychee, complemented by floral hints of roses and a touch of spiciness from pepper and cinnamon.
The wine is harmoniously rounded and exhibits a well-balanced character with a lasting finish characterized by spicy undertones.
