Eye: intense golden yellow colour. Nose: staggeringly complex! Rich, languid, slow dreaming swirls of honeyed turmeric cream, of saffron and the heavy golden light of evening. White pepper folded into lychee. Cumin seed, rose oil, pink peppercorns. Mouth: intense citrus notes – Seville orange, kumquat – jewel-cut the sweetness and weight into bevelled planes and angles. Magnificent!

Gustave Lorentz

The Lorentz family has been making wine since 1836 in the heart of the Alsace which lies in the northeast corner of France along the Rhine River. Charles Lorentz Sr. grandfather of the current president of Gustave Lorentz developed his vineyards on the hills of Altenberg de Bergheim in the foothills of the Vosges Mountains which has grown to 85 acres in this extraordinary terroir with four acres planted on the hills of the Grand Cru Kanzlerberg and 30 acres in the Grand Cru Altenberg de Bergheim.
