Domaine Kreydenweiss Kritt Gewürztraminer 2022

Vinification

Biodynamically farmed Gewurztraminer grown on an east-exposed, quartz-dominated slope just outside Andlau. Hand-harvest, slow pressing of whole bunches, natural fermentation in old Alsatian foudres without additives, aging on the lees for up to a year, bottled lightly filtered with a touch of sulfites.

Domaine Marc Kreydenweiss

Antoine Kreydenweiss is the producer of many a staff favorite here at Chabrol-HQ, ever since he took over the Alsatian domain of his father Marc, a famous pioneer in biodynamic viticulture. From the sleepy village of Andlau Antoine operates this esteemed Domaine with terroir-diverse holdings in the surrounding hills, among which the three Grand Cru’s Kastelberg, Wiebelsberg, and Moenchberg. No fan of rich-but-electric, lip-smackingly salty white wines that wear terroir rather than variety on their sleave should miss these often very age-worthy wines.
