2020 Gewürztraminer Grand Cru Brand, Albert Boxler

2020 Gewürztraminer Grand Cru Brand, Albert Boxler

Brand is one of the great Alsace grand cru sites, producing not only formidable Rieslings, but also utterly delectable Gewürztraminers. Indeed the affinity between the granite-soiled Brand vineyard and the Gewürztraminer variety is obvious, and it’s no surprise that a third of the grand cru is planted with this variety - a far higher proportion than it holds in the wider appellation. This wine shows the typical class and restraint we’ve come to admire in Jean Boxler’s Gewürzts. It is precise, aromatically sophisticated, spiced and enticing, and anything but overblown or cloying. The palate has a signature Boxler texture: silky, supple and persistent. It is delicious already but will surely transcend to the realms of the exquisit with some age. Residual sugar 30 g/l.
