The wine

A classic among French producers, Léon Beyer's family has been making wine for 14 generations (since 1580) in the small village of Eguisheim, in the very heart of Alsace.

This white wine from the French Rhine is fresh and fun, yet complex and harmonious. The gewürztraminer grape brings a myriad of fresh tropical aromas that will invade our nose and mouth.

It is worth noting the interesting evolution of this wine, which over the years loses acidity and gains in texture, becoming more glyceric and more complex.

A great wine to discover the relatively unknown wine region of Alsace.
