Hand-harvested grapes from the dry, warm 2022 vintage—characterized by missed rainfall leading to lower alcohol and heightened structure—undergo extended pressing, natural fermentation with indigenous yeasts in old oak barrels, and lees aging to enhance complexity and terroir expression. As a biodynamic pioneer since 1998 under Olivier Humbrecht, this production yields a pale yellow wine with remarkable tension and food-friendliness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e An elegant, aromatic white with floral spice and vibrant minerality, reflecting Alsace's gravelly terroir. The nose reveals subtle floral notes like yellow roses, with complex hints of spice, pepper, and reductive minerality evoking rain on pebbles. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and tight, with ripe acidity, tannins, and flavors of lychee, candied lemon, and light fruit, leading to a dry, complex finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAwards and Accolades\u003c\/strong\u003e The 2022 Gewurztraminer Turckheim earned 90 points from James Suckling for its bold floral character and fresh bitterness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServing and Cellaring\u003c\/strong\u003e Serve at 10-12°C with 30 minutes of decanting to open aromas.
