Pfaff Tradition Gewürztraminer Alsace AOC (off-dry)

Located at the heart of the vineyard of Alsace since 1957, Cave des Vignerons de Pfaffenheim has developed a taste for quality and innovation in line with its traditions and values.
“Gewurz” means spice, in line with the character of this variety.
Gewurztraminer expresses strong fruit flavours, like pineapple or lichi, and in most cases, notes of rose petal.
This wine is a typical example of the grape variety.
