Our oenologists' opinion
Fruity and crisp
Light straw yellow colour with pale straw highlights. Open nose with notes of pear, aniseed and hawthorn, a touch of sweetness. Tart, mineral and straightforward attack with notes of flint, white flowers and a hint of citrus fruit. Crisp finish on citrus fruits and white flowers, sapid, medium persistence.

Features
Body ? The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.
Freshness ? The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.
Aging ? All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.
Do you know ?
Wine made from organically grown grapes.

LA CAVE DU VIEIL ARMAND
The Cave du Vieil Armand is located in the South of Alsace and was created in 1959. It is the smallest cooperative cellar in Alsace and the wines are marketed under the "Récoltant" label. Made from a blend of 23 Rieslings and 13 Pinot Gris, our HAPPY 2020 vintage is made from organically grown grapes (FR-BIO-01). The vines come from clay and clay-sandstone soils and benefit from a South/South-East exposure. The vines are monitored from the winter pruning to the harvest, which is both mechanical and manual. After the harvest, our Cellar Master proceeds with a slow fermentation at 19°C followed by an ageing on fine lees for 6 to 8 months.
