Wine Info
Olivier Humbrecht:
Clos Windsbuhl is located above the village of Hunawihr and offers a beautiful view of the Alsatian valley floor and the famous Saint-Jacques le Majeur church. Due to its location near the Vosges Forest at an altitude of 300/350 m, this vineyard ripens relatively late, despite being on a steep east-south slope. The small “windy hill” lies on an ancient limestone cliff, the “Muschelkalk,” dating back to the Triassic period. The vines have little topsoil, are slow-growing, and are strongly influenced by the magnesium-rich and calcareous parent rock, and this also applies to the wines!
Vineyard Info
Gewürztraminer may be a challenge in such a location, but since it can be harvested quite late in each vintage, the wines are always harmoniously balanced and tolerate a certain sweetness very well. The 2020 is a classic Gewürztraminer from this exceptional vineyard.
Color
Bright, intense golden yellow.
Nose
The 2020 Gewurztraminer Clos Windsbuhl is a captivating and elegant representative of its kind: green figs, pink pepper, and a deep, salty minerality underpinned by pear cream, apple, white chocolate, fresh ginger, and lime zest. All components are perfectly interwoven and captivating at every moment!
Palate
A classic Gewürztraminer with a salty touch, distinct sweetness, and a fine tannin. Its freshness and vibrancy are unparalleled; the combination of saltiness and sweetness is excellent. A true long-distance runner, already great to drink now and will be even more brilliant in a few years. A prime example of elegance, pure umami! A delight to pair with appropriate dishes, a wonderful Gewürztraminer full of vitality. Those impatient to open it now are advised to decant it at least a day in advance and enjoy it not too cold from large Burgundy glasses.
