The Kientzler domaine is a small, 5th generation family-run estate spread out over the villages of Ribeauvillé, Bergheim, Hunawihr and Riquewihr. The vineyard consists of 13.8 hectares of vines, of which 4.4 hectares are classified Grand Cru. Riesling and Gewürztraminer make up about half of the family’s vineyards, and five other varieties also contribute to the Domaine’s output of approximately 6,000 cases per year. The winemakers’ passion for dry and gastronomic wines is revealed in each and every vintage.
This white wine has sweet fruit flavors and a thick texture. It tastes rich and smooth. The winemaker notes fruity flavors with some spice and a slight bitterness. It's best enjoyed within 5 years of its vintage date to keep its fresh, fruity taste.
