The wine region of Alsace Grand Cru 'Osterberg'
Grand Cru of Ribeauvillé in Haut-Rhin (full east-facing aspect on 10–30% slopes, gravelly clay soils over shell limestone Muschelkalk and dolomitic Lettenkohle with variegated marls). Riesling is the flagship white — powerful and austere with the most elegant and expressive acidity, developing characteristic smoky aromas with age. Gewurztraminer and Pinot Gris each a third on chalky marls; wines of exceptional keeping potential.
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: Baco 22A
A white grape variety resulting from the hybridization of the folle blanche and the noah. It is the only hybrid to remain authorized in a French appellation vineyard, that of Armagnac, where it thrives in particular on the tawny sands of Bas-Armagnac. When distilled, its wine produces round, smooth and aromatic eaux-de-vie with hints of ripe fruit.
