Domaine Barmés Buecher Gewurztraminer 2021

Domaine Barmès-Buecher, located in the heart of the Alsace region, just a few kilometres from Colmar and Eguisheim, was founded in 1985 by Geneviève Barmès (née Buecher) and her husband François Barmès. They combined the land holdings of their respective families, who had owned vines in Wettolsheim, one of the region’s largest wine growing towns, since the 17th century.

Geneviève and François chose to grow their vines using biodynamic practices, which places the emphasis on a respect for nature, life forces and natural cycles. The Domaine’s 15 hectares were converted to biodynamic growing in 1998 and have been certified biodynamic since the 2001 vintage.

This form of wine growing allows a closer relationship with the terroir and a better understanding of the environment surrounding the vine and the wine grower.

Go Alsace gewurz! Importer: QED

It’s pretty edgy, a bit knees and elbows, slaps around the palate with sweeter, stone fruits, lychee, leafy herbs and a bit of chalkiness, but seems to miss some composure in it jolly, jostling way. No missing what this is, has good carriage of flavour and perfume, but a little simple in its outlook, perhaps.
