Domaine Vincent Stoeffler - Gewurztraminer "Vendanges Tardives" 2020 - ORGANIC

The Liquid Gold of Domaine Stoeffler The term "Vendanges Tardives" refers to prestigious wines harvested several weeks after the classic harvest. At Domaine Vincent Stoeffler, this cuvée is only produced in vintages where the climatic conditions allow the Gewurztraminer to achieve perfect concentration.

Terroir and Secret of Production

• Grape Variety: 100% Gewurztraminer.

• Harvest: Manual harvesting through successive sorting of noble or overripe grapes (natural concentration through evaporation).

• Vinification: Very slow pressing to extract the essence of the juice. Long fermentation and careful aging to refine the structure of the wine.

• Commitment: Organic viticulture that respects biodiversity, allowing for a pure expression of the terroir.

Tasting Notes

• Color: An intense, deep, and brilliant gold color, with amber reflections.

• Nose: An explosive and refined bouquet. It reveals notes of lychee, ripe mango, wilted rose, along with spicy touches of ginger and flower honey.

• Palate: The creaminess is remarkable (rich on the palate), yet it is balanced by a fine acidity that lends elegance to the liqueur. The finish is persistent, with notes of apricot jam and oriental spices.

Food & Wine Pairing This wine is the ideal companion for exceptional moments:

• Gastronomy: Pan-seared foie gras with figs or very spicy Asian cuisine.

• Cheeses: Characterful cheeses like aged Munster or blues (Roquefort, Stilton).

• Desserts: A tarte tatin, a dessert with exotic fruits, or simply enjoyed on its own at the end of a meal.
