Vignoble du Rêveur Reveur
This off-dry blend of Gewürztraminer and Riesling comes from 40-year-old vines rooted in their biodynamic Bennwihr estate. Ten percent of the Gewürztraminer was macerated on skins for ten days and then blended back with the whole for a native ferment in stainless, where it rested on lees until bottling with light filtration and a minimum of sulphur. Gew's aromatics are at the fore here, with ample apricot, honeysuckle, peach gliding along the juicy, waxen palate. There's a fantastic grippy salinity framing this, and a buoyant juicy acidity carrying this demi-sec to the ginger-spiced finish. Classic Alsace, revisited. Impressive.
