Alsace, Domaine Pierre Henri Ginglinger, Gewurztraminer, Aoc Alsace Grand Cru Pfersigberg, Blanc
Established in the old town of Eguisheim, south of Colmar, this family estate whose origins date back to 1610 is located in a house dating back to 1684. Mathieu Ginglinger, who succeeded his father Pierre-Henri in 2003, runs the estate organically (certified in 2004). After acquiring vineyards at the southern end of the Route des Vins, he now has 15 ha, with parcels in 3 grands crus.
Presentation
Pfersigberg, which stretches over 74.55ha, has a strong preference for Gewurztraminer. Pinot Gris, Riesling and Muscat also develop wonderful complexity, a lot of elegance and finesse. Pfersigberg is cited during the 16th century in lease agreements between lords and convents. More recently, the Eguisheim wine-growers awarded a prize for Pfersigberg wines during the first Wine Fair in Colmar in 1927. Pfersigberg wine, and more specifically Gewurztraminer, is characterized by body, fruitiness, aroma and longevity.
