Wine Description:
The Spiegel stretches half-way up the two benches of Guebwiller and Bergholtz. The reputation of the Grand Cru Spiegel dates back to the 1950s when the winegrowers set up charters of quality and precise characteristics, which now makes original wines with fine aromas.
For the making of our Grands Crus we use perfectly ripe and healthy grapes from carefully cultivated and selected vineyards. The yields are low and the vineyards are generally planted with old vines. For these wines we focus on terroir or vineyard expression with all elements that influence the aromas, the composition and typical character of each Grand Cru.
Tasting Note:
Light yellow colour with silver highlights, fine and mineral nose with notes of white flowers. Mouth is fresh and racy with a beautiful length on the same aromas as the nose with a hint of peppermint.
