Tasting Notes
Aroma
An expression of ripeness and concentration is heightened by notes of bitter orange and yellow fruits.
Maturation
Ageing on fine lees for 8 months.
Palate
On the palate, the wine is dense and intense, with a powerful presence and a luscious character evoking peach, orange, and fresh pineapple. A juicy, refreshing acidity brings finesse and focus, lending a streamlined, vibrant structure. The finish is powerful, aromatically intense especially with grapefruit zest and reveals an underlying salinity that will develop over time.
Vinification
Whole grape pressing, static racking. Fermentation in thermocontrolled tuns for 1 to 4 months.
Food Matching
I like to pair it, at the table, with a salmon tartare with sesame, almond milk and caviar, a trout baked in white wine, a fried sturgeon with lemon and fine herbs or a goat’s milk cheese.
Region Notes
Kessler, established on a sandstone terroir, forms a hollow in its center that faces mainly east and southeast, sheltering it from northern winds and cold air currents brought in by the Guebwiller valley. A natural extension of the Grand Cru Kitterlé, its subsoils are reddish in color, lying atop a base of Vosges pink sandstone.
