Aromatic, refined dry whites with a pale golden colour, a full palate and preserved acidity, showing signature aromas of discreet muscat notes (rose), white flowers, white-fleshed fruits (pear) and delicate spicy notes. A distinctive aromatic profile, more restrained than Gewurztraminer. Preserved under a specific Alsatian appellation around Heiligenstein (Bas-Rhin), producing identity-driven wines. Rare Alsatian white variety, identical to the Jurassian Savagnin Rose.
