An ode to aromatic expressiveness and finesse, the Domaine Eugène Klipfel 2025 - Gewurztraminer AOP embodies the luminous clarity that makes great Alsace wines true signatures of style. This cuvée, rare and self-assured without ever forcing the effect, is aimed at aesthetes seeking an intensely perfumed white capable of pairing with foreign cuisines as well as with classic French gastronomy. It resolves a precious equation: a Gewurztraminer that is both expansive and balanced, whose floral and fruity richness retains a thread of freshness ideal for extending the tasting. The emotion is evident from the first nose, with that bouquet of rose and lychee subtly nuanced by sweet spice notes acting as a musical counterpoint. On the palate, the velvetiness stretches over a silky texture, lifted by a mineral hint that brightens the finish. At the table, it is both a companion to exotic dishes and an ally for shared moments, naturally finding its place among the fine wines you give, discuss and savour.

Blend and winemaking

From the 2025 harvest, this Gewurztraminer is made from 100 % of this grape variety, in respect of the Alsace Gewurztraminer Protected Designation of Origin. The estate favours a traditional approach focused on the integrity of the fruit and the preservation of the varietal identity. A gentle pressing extracts the best from the berries without harshness, while a low-temperature fermentation preserves the freshness and aromatic complexity emblematic of Gewurztraminer. This winemaking rigour, combining patience and precision, delivers a pure, readable, elegant profile in which the grape’s natural generosity is masterfully held by a structuring freshness. Bottled at the estate, the wine arrives at your table in a clean, harmonious expression, ready to be enjoyed in all its aromatic splendour.

Tasting notes

• Appearance : Bright golden yellow, clear, traversed by luminous highlights that announce a generous and graceful substance.
• Nose : Intense and expressive, it blends lychee and mango with a fully open rose, enhanced by sweet spices. A few exotic inflections and a floral touch compose a broad, nuanced bouquet.
• Palate : Velvety, expansive attack, rich mid-palate, supported by a precise freshness. The finish extends with elegance, marked by a mineral hint that signs the persistence.

Serving temperature and tips

Serve between 8 and 10 °C in tulip-shaped white wine glasses that concentrate the bouquet and texture. Open the bottle a few minutes before serving to let the wine breathe and unfold its floral and spicy range. Store it away from light, at a stable temperature, bottle lying down if keeping for longer. This Gewurztraminer can be enjoyed today for its aromatic generosity and balance, and is equally comfortable at the table or as an aperitif when you want to give a convivial moment an extra touch of refinement.

Food pairings

• Appetizers : spicy bites, vegetable samosas, light tempura, crispy spring rolls, where the floral aromatics embrace the indulgence.
• Starters : pan-seared or lightly cooked foie gras, delicately seasoned tartare, shrimp and citrus salad, for a measured sweet–spice dialogue.
• Main courses : dishes with exotic inspiration, mild coconut milk curries, fruit-studded tagines, fragrant woks, which the velvety texture accompanies with tact.
• Cheeses : Munster and washed-rind cheeses, whose power finds a calming counterpart in the wine’s aromatic richness.
• Desserts : exotic fruit salads, mango-passion tarts, citrus pavlova, where rose and lychee compose an airy finale.
