Baltasis sausas
The Clos Häuserer is located on the bottom of the Grand Cru Hengst in Wintzenheim. This little vineyard (1,2ha) shares the same geology as the Grand Cru, a red marl/sandstone oligocen limestone. The nose shows the classic characteristics of this vineyard: smoky, mineral, stony aromatics, slight reduction (influence of the rich marl), but eventually opens up with aeration on honey, citrus, waxy flavour. The palate shows extraordinary purity and a serene mouthfeel. The power and silky texture doesn’t show on the analysis. Powerful acidity, very saline. It can be kept a long time in contact of oxygen and will not evolve much. Long lasting potential
Serve at 8-10 °C with sushi, fish rice or as aperitif.
