The wine region of Alsace Grand Cru 'Sporen'
Grand Cru of Riquewihr in the Haut-Rhin (~24 ha in a south-east-facing amphitheatre at 275 m, clay-marl soils decalcified on the surface, very rich in phosphoric acid which promotes early ripening). Gewurztraminer is the white king: full-bodied, rich and luscious with exotic fruits and spices, balanced by aromatic herbs and fine acidity. Pinot Gris is a distinguished complement. Finesse, distinction, elegance and richness—a terroir cited as early as 1432 by the Dukes of Württemberg.
