Willm, Gewurztraminer Reserve, 2007

Description

The winery is considered a major reference brand in the world of Alsatian wines, thanks to its centuries-old history that has made it a leader in the production of Gewurztraminer. Gewurztraminer Willm is the result of a careful selection of the grapes of the same name, coming from vines located between 200 and 400 meters in altitude in the heart of Alsace. The soils have a variable composition of different formations, rich in minerals and limestone. The grapes ripen perfectly thanks to the strong temperature variations between night and day. After manual harvesting, the grapes are first destemmed and then gently pressed to obtain a pure and clear juice. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks, followed by aging for about 2-3 months in steel.
