Turckheim Gewurztraminer Vendange Tardive

Turckheim Gewurztraminer Vendange Tardive - 'Vendange Tardive', literary meaning 'late harvest' describes the viticulture for this style of wine, which is only released in specific years, when the right noble-rot conditions take place. Concentrated, richly sweet and showing delightful notes of tropical fruit.

With a steady stream of investment over the years, Cave de Turckheim always pays the utmost respect for the wine, combining rigour, know-how and patience with the latest technology. Since 1998 winemaking has been in the hands of Michel Lihrmann, who selects grapes from 280 growers over 330 hectares of Alsace vines. With healthy and ripe grapes, Michel strongly belives that varietals in Alsace should express their delicate characteristics.

Alsace is famed for its sweet breads and pastries and this wine would suit fruit based pies or crumbles. Or follow the Alsace tradition and offer with a slice of Kugelhupf (fruit and almond cake baked in the shape of a ring).
