Hueben Steinbach
The Hueben Steinbach is located between Cernay and Vieux Thann but remains on the grounds of Steinbach.
Completely destroyed during the first world war, it was timidly replanted in the 1920s but 60% of the vineyard of the “coast 425” remained uncultivated until the consolidation of the 1970s. It is only since the 90s that the vineyard Steinbach resumed its splendor and surface of yesteryear.
The terroir of Hill 425 consists of a volcano-sedimentary formation of lower muschelkalk of very fine sandstone and ocher silts; our plots are located on this last part which gives the earth a red / pink color.
The steep slope and the south-facing exposure make it an ideal terroir for viticulture.

Gewurztraminer Hueben Steinbach 2017
Passing on its brilliant yellow colour, this wine will make you discover a powerful nose that develops floral aromas reminiscent of rose, musk and sandalwood. In the mouth the attack is sweet and supple, suave and reveals notes of rose and cooked fruit. The finish is particularly interesting with a touch of acidity that brings out a very fresh side.
This wine has very good ageing potential (this is the case for most of 2017) and I look forward to its long-term evolution.
