2019 Muscat Grand Cru “Pfersigberg Trois Châteaux”

Kuentz-Bas
Discount Eligible $45.00
AT CART MAX

The Pfersigberg grand cru is a perfectly exposed, southeast-facing slope of marly limestone that favors excellent ripeness, power, and elegance in the wines it produces. Kuentz-Bas vinifies a glorious dry Muscat from this site, an ample and fleshy white scented of ripe citrus, tropical flowers, and exotic fruits. Decant it and serve alongside simply prepared fish or a plate of goat cheeses to give the wine a canvas that will allow it to truly shine. Alternatively, you can cellar this grandiose Alsatian blanc for up to a decade to see how Muscat from a great vineyard site only improves with time, offering an unforgettable aromatic and textural journey when you finally open the bottle.

About The Region

Alsace

map of Alsace

Tragically, Alsace might be the most misunderstood wine region of France. In spite of its long history of viticulture and tremendous diversity of pedigreed terroirs, a past fraught with marketing mishaps has left consumers baffled as to what exactly to expect inside one of these mysterious tall, thin bottles.

The good news, on the other hand, is that a new wave of quality-oriented growers is working hard to put Alsace in its rightful place as one of the world’s most fascinating sources of fine white wine. By embracing tradition, respecting terroir, and making a concerted effort to better communicate the countless virtues their wines have to offer, they have succeeded in putting Alsace back on the map.

Crafted from a number of grape varieties and beautifully interpreting the region’s mosaic of soil types, our Alsace imports are by and large dry whites offering exceptional versatility at table. While each of these selections is ready to be uncorked tonight, the finest among them are also capable of maturing for many, many years in a cool cellar. Expect kaleidoscopic aromatics, lively acidities, and loads of terroir transparency in these skillfully crafted masterpieces. Enjoy a foray into the thrilling world of the world’s most underrated wine region, and certainly do not hesitate to contact our sales staff with any questions as you take off on this mouth-watering adventure.
