2022 Les Vins Pirouettes Eros de Pierre, Alsace, France

$24.99

Cultivated and vinified by Pierre Bannwarth

Grapes: 60% Muscat, 40% Gewurztraminer

Vineyard: limestone marl, biodynamic farming (Demeter-certified). The Muscat comes from a north-oriented slope while the Gewurztraminer is from the Grand Cru
Hatschbourg, a full-south exposure vineyard.

Making of: the grapes are hand-harvested, sorted and macerated for 10 days, 100 % whole bunches. Spontaneous fermentation followed by elevage in stainless steel tanks, for 11 months. Bottled without fining, filtration or sulfur addition. 

Personality: “yin and yang, black and white, or rather pink (gewurtz) and white (muscat), poised in a delicate balance”, the winemaker describes. Yet another succesful addition to the popular Eros orange family!
