Gewürztraminer Vendanges Tardives 2019 François Bleger is an extraordinary dessert wine, made from late-harvested grapes that maximise the intensity and concentration of flavours. The wine has a deep golden colour and offers an explosion of exotic aromas, including lychee, passion fruit, pineapple and a hint of rose petals. This rich bouquet is accompanied by notes of honey and spice, typical of a well-matured Gewürztraminer. On the palate, the wine is full and opulent, with a velvety texture supported by a pleasant freshness. The concentrated sweetness is beautifully balanced by the natural acidity, creating an elegant and harmonious structure. The long, lingering finish offers hints of dried fruit and honey, underlining the complexity of this wine. This Gewürztraminer Vendanges Tardives is ideal as the finale to a festive meal, and pairs perfectly with foie gras, blue cheeses or desserts with fresh fruit. It is a wine that can age for decades, becoming even richer and more complex over time
