 <\/p>\n

MURETS<\/a> :<\/strong><\/p>\n

A steeply sloping terroir that lies at altitudes of between 270m and 350m and exposed south-east and south-west.<\/p>\n

It has a deep clay-limestone soil with an important stony layer on the surface.<\/p>\n

Nearby, there are many stone walls made out of calcareous flagstones. These walls have a drainage effect on their environment, enabling excellent grape maturation.<\/p>\n

\u201cLes Murets\u201d facilitates the development of wines with a smoky aroma and confers a structure that is both firm and velvety, which is balanced out with a good of vitality.<\/p>\n

\"vin-alsace-terroir-Gewurtz-rotenburg-rentz\"<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ROTENBURG<\/a> :<\/strong><\/p>\n

Originating from two steeply sloping terroirs (Rotenberg and Burg) exposed east and south, whose limestone soil gives it a brick-red hue and brightly coloured marls formed on gravel.<\/p>\n

The synergy of these two terroirs brings forth a most intense sensory experience.<\/p>\n

The blending of these two terroirs distinguishes a variety of nicely perfumed aromas on the nose and provides a strong and long-lasting complex structure on the palate<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

LES COMTES – GRAFENREBEN
\n<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Terroir on a gentle slope that lies at altitudes between 220m and 280m exposed south-east.<\/p>\n

The soil is composed of clay-limestone marls with alluvial on the surface.<\/p>\n

This composition encourages a deeper grounding of the vine\u2019s roots, which adds to the wine\u2019s complexity.<\/p>\n

\u201cLes Comtes\u201d produces a wine with a persistent structure, with elegant and intense hints of fruits with white flesh.<\/p>\n

The aftertaste is ample with a salty note.<\/p>\n

Made up of a clayey-marly soil on a bed of calcareous sandstone and dotted with marine fossils.<\/p>\n

\u201cFroehn\u201d wine has an exceptional aromatic purity.<\/p>\n

A fine wine which is subtle and elegant with salty notes on the finish.<\/p>\n

A mean slope terroir that lies at altitudes between 220m and 270m exposed south-east.<\/p>\n

The soil is a conglomerate of limestone pebbles and marls.<\/p>\n

Very gravelly on the surface, which reflects the heat and light of the sun and thereby encourages the ripening of the grapes.<\/p>\n

\u201cSonnenglanz\u201d produces a powerful wine with a high concentration of ripen and long-lasting aromas, accompanied by some wonderful spicy notes.<\/p>\n
