Tasting notes
The 2015 Gewurztraminer Cuvée Laurence comes from the bottom of the Altenbourg (limestone/clay soil) and opens with a very clear, fresh and aromatic bouquet of white fruits and citrus flavors (oranges, kumquat), along with mineral and spicy notes. Round and very elegant on the palate, this full-bodied Gewurz is lush and fresh, very juicy but also nicely mineral and floral. It reveals fine tannins and a lingering salinity in the finish. This 2015 drinks already perfect today, but can go for decades. There is a nice piquancy and mineral grip in the finish.

From the base of the Altenbourg, 28 g/l. A little more intense and spicy than the Réserve Personnelle. Perfumed and yet with a sour freshness that adds extra spice and impressive length. Full but pulled in on the finish by the freshness. (JH)
