    The wine

    Made from the exceptional Brand grand cru, this Gewurztraminer draws from a warm, granite terroir to produce a cuvée with an intense nose typical of the grape variety. At once exotic and floral, this cuvée possesses the elegance and depth of a fine wine. Opening with a lightly spiced touch, its masterful balance places it among the best of its variety. We find, as much to taste as to smell, the class brought by Jean Boxler to the domain’s wines. A fine texture, exceptional finish and long persistence are the key features of this cuvée.

    Information about domain Albert Boxler

    An emblematic domain of the Alsace region, Albert Boxler comprises 19 hectares of which half are classed Grand Cru. Founded towards the end of the 1940s, the domain favours clean and careful growing. In any case, the vines planted on steep terrain cannot be reached by machines. The treatments used are organic and the yields are masterful. In the cellar, indigenous yeasts carry out their work, and the wines are matured in old barrels in order to avoid a flavour that is marked by wood, and stirring is banned. The current owner, Jean Boxler, seeks before all else to highlight the particularities of the grape varieties and the terroirs through fine, taut and crystalline wines. This talent is particularly embodied in the careful work of Jean Boxler, who sees wine as a space of freedom and expression. It is therefore as an artist that he produces his lingering wines, possessing a noble texture and great delicacy.
