Domaine Ostertag
Domaine Ostertag is a family estate of 14.4 hectares spread over more than 80 "petits jardins de vignes", mostly in the village of Epfig. Managed by André Ostertag, Domaine Ostertag's Alsace wines have become benchmarks for their precision and typicity.

Domaine Ostertag has reached a level of excellence achieved in particular by converting the vineyard to biodynamic viticulture in 1998, giving priority to hand work and banning all chemical fertilizers, weedkillers and insecticides. Today, Domaine Ostertag is one of the spearheads of Alsace wines.

Somewhere between the luxuriance of the Garden of Eden and oriental voluptuousness, Gewurztraminer Fronholz is a mellow wine where the greed of the fruit is toned by the saline precision of the terroir. This minerality softens the sweetness of the wine, making it ideal for surprising gastronomic pairings.

This Riesling is a fine expression of the blend of different parcels of which it is composed. A fruity wine par excellence, this cuvée gives off delicate aromas of white flowers and vine blossom. The palate is greedy and sapid, with a long, beautiful, slightly saline finish.

pinot gris
freshness
white fruit

Pinot Gris Les Jardins has remarkable freshness and aromatic intensity. The nose gives off floral, slightly smoky and fruity aromas of ripe yellow fruit, citrus and honey. The palate, a perfect combination of terroir and ageing, produces a wine with a dry, fat balance uncommon in the region. Minerality and fruit are the order of the day!

Planted on the western flank of the Fronholz on the very day man first walked on the moon (1969), Muscat here reveals a refined nose of orange blossom and citrus fruit. The mouth, long and saline, illustrates the airy, salivating grace of this cuvée. A true pleasure wine, greedy and dry!

Domaine Ostertag - Gewurztraminer Les Jardins Vendanges Tardives 2017

Concentrated and syrupy, powerful and rich perfectly describe this Gewurztraminer Vendanges Tardives. An ephemeral cuvee, the 2017 vintage was perfect for developing botrytis and producing an exceptional sweet wine. A rare wine!

A major cuvée for Domaine Ostertag, Zellberg Pinot Gris seduces with its complexity, freshness and fine aromas. On the palate, it's an explosion of white and yellow fruit flavors (mirabelle plum, apple, quince), fleshy, with a long finish that ends on a saline note. In its youth, this wine will mellow with age.

This beautiful cuvée offers a classic expression of great Riesling, with a fine, precise and very elegant wine. The distinctive feature of Fronholz is its salty finish, due to the many mineral salts in the soil. This great salinity makes it ideal for a wide range of gastronomic pairings, as it salivates, invigorates the palate and whets the appetite. Discover it for yourself!

This Sylvaner Vieilles Vignes surprises with its perfect balance between tension, characteristic of the grape variety, and elegance and finesse. Notes of exotic fruit, apples and white flowers transport us to the orchards of Alsace. A truly gourmet Sylvaner.

Unable to call this cuvée "Vendanges Tardives" (for 1/10th of a degree!), the Fronholz 2015 Gewurztraminer nevertheless has all the hallmarks of a great Vendange Tardive: aromatic concentration, gourmandise, sapidity with that saline, airy finish that characterizes this terroir. Delicious!

Here, the Fronholz imposes its frank, dry character on the Pinot Gris, contrasting with a taut mineral structure and the marine, iodine notes so characteristic of this great terroir. A great wine with an assertive personality!

(2013 vintage notes)

This Grand Cru is a Riesling of incomparable nobility and length. Here, the balance on the palate is due to the perfect complementarity of sandstone and volcano: the sensual, feminine sandstone ensures a charming entry, while the primitive, masculine, fiery volcano allows the wine to stretch to that fine, interminable, almost salty finish so characteristic of Muenchberg. Divine!
