Dopff & Irion Grand Cru Goldert Gewurztraminer

  • A.O.C. Alsace Grand Cru Gewurztraminer

  • Terroir

    The upper part comprises a fairly steep slope, made up of a geological substrate of oolitic limestone from the Dogger hills. Lower down, the subsoil, composed of tertiary conglomerates, is covered by quaternary solifluction deposits, where fragments, limestone and sandstone pebbles, merge within an argillaceous matrix. The best exposed and most healthy soils bring together the limestone soils. These quaternary deposits provide excellent drainage.

  • Harvesting

    Exclusively hand-picked harvest.

  • Serving Temperature

    10 to 12°C

  • Ageing Potential

    Can be conserved for between 10 and 15 years.

  • Winemaking

    Low pressure pressing, winemaking at a controlled temperature. Maturing on fine lees for a period of 4 months. Stocking in stainless steel for 9 months before bottling. Storage in bottles before being released onto the market.

  • Tasting Notes

    COLOR: intense golden robe, attractive brilliant appearance.
    AROMAS : very complex floral notes, typical of the grape variety, rose petals, jasmine, mock orange, gardenia, mild spices, cinnamon, vanilla-flavored sugar, zests de mandarin-orange marmalade, melon, and dried apricot.
    PALATE: at once mineral and suave on the palate, good balance, persistent crisp peppery finish.

  • Food pairing

    Its strong and round structure goes well with unctuous fish (trout with sun-dried tomatoes), white meat (poultry fricassee with coconut milk) and game. It goes well with sautéed foie gras with spices. Chinese cuisine also pairs well with Gewurztraminer
