Cave de Hunawihr Riesling Grand Cru 'Rosacker' / 2023 / 75cl

The Alsace cooperative, Cave de Hunawihr was founded in 1954 to help re-establish winemaking traditions in a region greatly affected by World War Two. The results have been overwhelmingly positive and Hunawihr now comprises 110 members dedicated to growing exceptional fruit from classic Alsatian varieties.

The 5.6 hectare Rosacker Grand Cru vineyard is north of Hunawihr, a small village between Ribeauville and Riquewihr. This is also where the famous parcel of Clos St Hune is located. Cave de Hunawihr work with 12 different growers who together own 5 hectares of this Grand Cru.

Straw yellow in colour, this elegant wine shows notes of lemon and grapefruit on the nose. Aromatic hints of citrus are complemented by crisp acidity and a lively finish. This is a complex and zesty wine with great potential for bottle development.
