Domaine Christophe Mittnacht 'Gyotaku' Alsace, 2022

Domaine Christophe Mittnacht 'Gyotaku' Alsace, 2022

Regular price $24.00

This wine is made of 45% Pinot Blanc, 23% Pinot Gris, 16% Gewurztraminer, 8% Riesling, and 8% Muscat. “Gyotaku” is a traditional Japanese art form created by pressing paper onto a fish covered in ink. The grapes are farmed biodynamically, and grow from 30+ year old vines on clay and limestone soil, for a boost of minerality. The wine is soft and floral, with flavor notes of white peach, apricot, and gala apple. The winemaker, who married a Japanese chef, had a sushi pairing in mind when crafting this cuvée, so grab your favorite roll and chill this bottle down.

Details

From our Importer: Founded in 1958, Domaine Mittnacht is a family-run estate led by the charming couple of Christophe and Yuka Mittnacht. They farm some of the finest vineyards around the town of Hunawihr. Christophe was an early pioneer of the biodynamic movement, believing that biologically complex, complete soils are essential for producing elegant and terroir driven wines. The domaine was officially certified biodynamic in 1999 – one of the very first in all of Alsace. The old vines holdings include the Grand Cru Rosacker (where the fabled Clos-St.-Hune is located), as well as excellent sites between Ribeauville and Riquewihr. Christophe believes in minimal intervention and letting the soil sing using neutral wood and tank to deliver spot-on, expressive and beautifully delicate wines. Christophe harvests balanced fruit and avoids the excesses of alcohol and residual sugar that mask the freshness and florality that makes Alsace so special.
