Frey Sohler Gewurztraminer Vendanges Tardives 2018
Domaine Frey-Sohler's Gewürztraminer Vendanges Tardives 2018 is a distinguished late-harvest white wine from the Alsace region in northeastern France.
This wine is crafted entirely from the Gewürztraminer grape, known for its aromatic intensity and expressive character. The 2018 vintage presents a sweet style, balancing the grape's natural richness with a refreshing acidity.
The grapes are harvested late in the season, allowing them to develop concentrated sugars and flavours. The wine is aged on fine lees in stainless steel tanks for 10 to 18 months, a process that enhances its texture and depth while preserving its crisp character.
It exhibits a deep golden hue. The nose is expressive, revealing notes of ripe citrus fruits, white peach, and subtle hints of flint and wet stone, indicative of its mineral-rich terroir. On the palate, it is fresh and lively, with a crisp acidity that balances the fruitiness. The finish is clean and persistent.
This Gewürztraminer complements seafood, such as shellfish and grilled fish, as well as fresh salads and goat cheese.
