   Riesling.

   In Alsace, at least two elements are highly valued in viticulture. The first is the “savoir-faire,” which can be translated as a complex combination of terroir and viticultural practices. The second is the distinguished presence of grape varieties; Gewürztraminer, Sylvaner, and Riesling are among the most notable. The latter is a specialty of Gustave Lorentz, which achieves this superb quality from its vineyards located on the slopes of Bergheim with a typicity of clay-limestone soils, giving this white grape its distinctive Alsatian character.

   Intense bright golden yellow color.

   It opens immediately with notable intensity with aromas of grapefruit and bergamot, notes of flint, and white pepper.

   An exceptional wine that combines strength and elegance, pairing very well with distinguished cuisine based on the finest fish and accompanied by delicate sauces.

   Alsacia.
