Description
The Gustave Lorentz Pinot Gris Organic Grand Cru Altenberg is an exceptional white wine from the renowned Grand Cru Altenberg de Bergheim, one of the most prestigious vineyards in Alsace. This organic Pinot Gris combines richness, elegance, and impressive complexity. Thanks to the old vines, unique terroir, and careful vinification, this is a gastronomic wine with great aging potential and a beautiful development in the bottle.
White peach, vanilla, and refined spice
This Grand Cru has a deep golden-yellow color and an intense bouquet of white peach, sandalwood, vanilla, and delicate spices. On the palate, the wine is rich and concentrated, with a full body and a beautiful balance between fresh acidity and natural residual sugars. The long finish is characterized by notes of marzipan, ripe stone fruit, and a refined spice, with each sip revealing new aromas.
Grand Cru Altenberg de Bergheim – An exceptional terroir
The grapes come from the historic Grand Cru Altenberg de Bergheim, where Gustave Lorentz owns a large part of the vineyard. The old vines grow on a unique soil of clay and limestone, giving the wine its characteristic power, minerality, and elegance. Altenberg has been known as one of Alsace's finest terroirs since the thirteenth century, producing wines with exceptional finesse and impressive aging potential.
Perfect with gastronomic dishes
This Grand Cru Pinot Gris truly shines with foie gras, glazed duck, refined Asian dishes, and rich poultry dishes. It also pairs beautifully with aged cheeses and dishes with a lightly sweet accent. Thanks to its rich structure and long finish, this is a wine that invites slow enjoyment.
Gustave Lorentz
Since 1836, Gustave Lorentz has been one of Alsace's most renowned wineries. The family business operates entirely organically and owns some of the most beautiful Grand Cru vineyards around Bergheim. Low yields, manual harvesting, and great respect for nature and terroir result in wines that are internationally known for their elegance, purity, and exceptional quality.

Let customers speak for us
We hebben hemmin Maastricht leren kennen en laten hem niet meer los. Een volle wijn die in balans is. We proeven zachte tonen van abrikoos en perzik maar ook de frisheid van citrus. Het beetje aards, mineralig maakt hem
Interessant.
Wij vinden hem erg lekker bij een risotto met zeevruchten.
Goede service, maar onze intercommen liggen eruit dus de bezorger kon niet bellen, toen de dichtstbijzijnde afleveradres Lidl,
Maar hele klus om zware doos te vervoeren, daarom maar een winkelwagen meegenomen.
Very tasty kosher wine, exactly my taste. Fast delivery, would definitely order again!
Een heerlijk zoete rode wijn uit Israël voor Avondmaalsvieringen. Ook lekker voor mensen die nooit drinken
Zie boven.
Het is heerlijke koshere druivensap voor Shabbat.
Habe jetzt das 2te mal hier bestellt und es lief wie beim ersten Mal alles super, danke
Schnelle Lieferung, sicher verpackt, rundum ein zuverlässiger Händler!
Empfehle ich gerne weiter.
wel even lucht geven en niet al te koud drinken. heerlijk bij de dis of tapas, maar voor zomaar ook heerlijk.
Kan bij bijna alles, maar is los ook erg lekker. (en met een zak chips -hoe oneerbieding - ook zo op) ;-)
Wel even een beetje lucht geven (goede decateren - kan een beetje droesem hebben), deze wijn is in het begin wat verlegen, maar met een beetje aanmoediging een echte gangmaker.
