Gewurztraminer Signature, Mure. Alsace
The Muré family have been making wine in the southerly Rouffach region since the end of the Thirty Years War in 1648; René is the eleventh generation in charge, and farms both the original holdings and the Clos St Landelin, a thirteen-hectare plot within the Grand Cru Vorbourg bought by his grandfather in 1935. Sheltered by the highest peaks of the Vosges mountains, the vineyards in the Rouffach region receive an exceptional amount of sunshine. The average age of these Gewurztraminer vines is thirty years.

TASTING NOTES
Controlled yet expressive, this wine offers the characteristic exotic aromas of Gewurztraminer – rose petals, lychee and gingerbread – in an elegant, medium-bodied style. This is a Gewurzt made for food!
Press : “Creamy and refined in texture, with well-knit layers of apricot tart, orange granita, candied pink grapefruit zest and almond, featuring a skein of ground spice and mouthwatering acidity.” –
90 points, Wine Spectator, October 2013
