2022 Domaine Kientzler Gewurztraminer
Rich, concentrated and texturally viscous with a long, exotic off dry finish.
The Kientzler family has been growing vines for more than 5 generations in Ribeauvillé and the surrounding regions, farming almost 14ha of vines, including significant parcels in the Grand Crus of Geisberg, Osterberg and Kirchberg.
Brilliant pale straw colour with a distinct greenish tinge around outskirts and watery hue. Intense lychee and rosewater aromas intermix with musk, hints of honeysuckle and ginger. Rich luscious lychee, ripe pear and honeysuckle flavours engulf the palate with notions of Turkish delight and ginger spice lying underneath. Terrific concentration and textural volume is balanced by fresh underlying acidity. Off dry it has a long exotic finish.
Drink over the next 3-4 years.
