The wine region of Alsace Grand Cru 'Rosacker'
Grand Cru of Hunawihr in Haut-Rhin (~26 ha, 260-330 m, east-south-east exposure, Triassic Muschelkalk and dolomitic Lettenkohle limestone, calci-magnesian soils with Vosges sandstone debris). Riesling is the signature grape (50%): dry, powerful and concentrated with ripe aromas and superb extended saline tension. Gewurztraminer (30%) adds richness. Temperate microclimate fostering slow ripening, wines of great longevity; home to the mythical Clos Sainte Hune.
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: Concentrate
Said of a wine that is rich in all its components (sugars in sweet wines, tannins in red wines, aromatic compounds) and that leaves an impression of density, intensity and depth.
