The wine region of Alsace Grand Cru 'Florimont'

Grand Cru in Ingersheim and Katzenthal (Haut-Rhin), ~308 m altitude, east-facing slope with southern part, marly-calcareous chalky soils, microclimate of the Colmar ellipse with only 550 mm of rainfall: Riesling is the signature white — opulent and generous sustained by ripe acidity with citrus of great elegance. Dense structured Gewurztraminer with floral and citrus notes, Pinot Gris and Muscat complement. Powerful wines of dense architecture.


The wine region of Alsace

Capital of great French aromatic whites, most often dry and single-varietal. Straight, mineral Riesling (lemon, gunflint), opulent, exuberant Gewurztraminer (lychee, rose, spices), round, smoky Pinot Gris, floral, crisp Muscat, supple Pinot Blanc. Fine, fruity Crémants d'Alsace, exceptional sweet Vendanges Tardives and Sélection de Grains Nobles. 15,500 ha at the foot of the Vosges on varied soils, 51 Grands Crus since 1975.

The word of the wine: Table wine

Everything that is not VQPRD (European designation for all appellation wines: quality wine produced in a specific region). In principle, the bottom of the ladder. But, as in Italy a decade ago (Vino da Tavola), this category is also a refuge for wines that are out of the ordinary, whose producers refuse to accept certain grape variety or vinification dictates.
