"A winemaker often singled out for his late harvests. This year, a straw-yellow selection de grains nobles that combines power and elegance. On the nose, quince, candied apricot and citrus peel. This complex, rich fruitiness carries through to a highly concentrated, ample and generous palate, purified by a fresh, saline finish with accents of lime. Already harmonious, this 2015 will improve with age". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2019)

About the wine:

A winemaker often singled out for his late harvests. This year, a straw-yellow selection de grains nobles that combines power and elegance. On the nose, quince, candied apricot and citrus peel. This complex, rich fruitiness carries through to a highly concentrated, ample and generous palate, purified by a fresh, saline finish with accents of lime. Already harmonious, this 2015 will improve with age.

About the domain :

Based in Scherwiller, near Sélestat, Damien, joined by his daughter Aude, has been running a 16-hectare estate since 1998, supplementing its production with a trading activity. Their vineyards are spread over three terroirs, including Frankstein, a granite grand cru around the neighboring village of Dambach-la-Ville.
