Lucien Albrecht | Gewurztraminer Reserve - NV

The nose is fine and presents a great aromatic richness with notes of sweet spices (cinnamon, cardamom) and exotic fruits( mango, papaya, and guava). On the palate, it shows a great complexity: supple and ample, with persistence on spicy and mango flavours.

Reviews:

• Wine Enthusiast: In this wine, a subtle nose unites rosy florals with ripe, juicy peach. These notions also play on the rounded and juicy palate where fruity ripeness is boosted by medium sweetness. The finish brims with freshness.

• James Suckling: Although this gewurz is frankly sweet, it also has a a very bright, citrusy character and a lightness of touch that makes it easy to enjoy. Nice turkish-delight character at the clean finish.

Producer Information

Lucien Albrecht (pronounced Lu-Shen All-Bresht) is one of the most distinguished producers of white wines in Alsace, founded in 1698 when Balthazar Albrecht settled in Orschwihr, a small village flanked by rolling hills and ideally situated for grape-growing. Today the winery is known worldwide for the finesse, unique aromatic structure and freshness of its still and sparkling wines. All Lucien Albrecht wines are produced with fruit sourced exclusively from estate vineyards, including the Grand Cru Pfingstberg and Grand Cru Spiegel. A leader in the production of acclaimed Brut and Rosé Crémants, the winery was instrumental in securing AOC Crémant d’Alsace designation in 1976. The winemaking team, led by Jérôme Keller, embraces a philosophy of respect for the environment with minimal interference from the vineyards to the glass. In 2012 Lucien Albrecht received France’s Agri Confiance sustainability certification.
