Domaine Stentz-Buecher – Gewurztraminer 2016 – Alsace Grand Cru, Hengst

The nose is elegant, (very) slightly tight, slightly powerful and offers a fine richness. It reveals notes of quenette, lemon zest and small notes of brugnon associated with touches of mango, pear, racy minerality and an imperceptible touch of pepper. The palate is fruity, juicy, well-balanced, very discreetly tight and offers a beautiful acidulous / citrus frame, elegance, a certain delicacy as well as a fine suavity. On the palate this wine expresses notes of ripe lemon, juicy tangerine and small notes of litchi associated with fine touches of yuzu zest, passion fruit and a very discreet hint of juicy grapes. Good length.
