Vinification of the Julien Schaal Kaefferkopf Gewürztraminer Grand Cru Alsace

This powerful white wine from France is organically vinified from the Gewürztraminer grape variety. Kaefferkopf Gewürztraminer Grand Cru Alsace is an Old World wine in the best sense of the word, as this Frenchman exudes an extraordinary European charm that clearly underscores the success of Old World wines. The development of the grapes for this wine from Gewürztraminer is influenced to a very high degree by the climate of the growing region. In Alsace, the grapes thrive in a rather cool climate, which is reflected, among other things, in particularly long and uniform grapes and a rather moderate must weight. After the grape harvest, the grapes reach the winery by the fastest route. Here they are sorted and carefully broken up. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by aging for several months on the fine lees before the wine is finally drawn off.

Food recommendation for the Julien Schaal Kaefferkopf Gewürztraminer Grand Cru Alsace
