The wine region of Alsace Grand Cru 'Kaefferkopf'
Alsatian Grand Cru of Ammerschwihr (unique: blending permitted, like Altenberg-de-Bergheim): Gewurztraminer reigns (55% production) alongside Riesling (30%) and Pinot Gris (9%) — signature profile combining elegance and aromatic power, aromas of exotic fruits, soft spices, rose and minerality. Specific blend: 60-80% Gewurztraminer, 10-40% Riesling, ≤30% Pinot Gris, ≤10% Muscat. A true terroir wine.
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: Chaptalization
The addition of sugar at the time of fermentation of the must, an ancient practice, but theorized by Jean-Antoine Chaptal at the dawn of the 19th century. The sugar is transformed into alcohol and allows the natural degree of the wine to be raised in a weak or cold year, or - more questionably - when the winegrower has a harvest that is too large to obtain good maturity.
