The Late Harvest is the fruit of exceptional years that allow us to obtain over-ripe grapes harvested at the end of autumn from parcels selections. Only the four so-called noble grape varieties are allowed: Riesling, Muscat, Pinot Gris and Gewurztraminer.
Pressing of whole botrytised grapes. Strict settling for juice clarity. Alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by a maturation on fine lees for more than 6 months.
Straw-yellow colour with gold highlights.
Very complex, candied fruits, apricot, pineapple.
The freshness of the Riesling accompanies the roundness of this Late Harvest. Notes of acacia honey and candied lemons.
It goes wonderfully well with a pan-fried foie gras or with a lemon meringue pie. Can also be surprising as an aperitif.
