    • Description

      The Gustave Lorentz Pinot Gris Organic Grand Cru Kanzlerberg is an exceptional white wine from the prestigious Grand Cru Kanzlerberg, the smallest Grand Cru vineyard in Alsace. This exclusive Pinot Gris combines power, richness, and refinement in a wine with impressive complexity and exceptional aging potential. Thanks to its unique soil, steep slopes, and Gustave Lorentz's craftsmanship, this wine is among the absolute best in Alsace.

      Citrus, marzipan, and a rich, spicy finish

      This Grand Cru has an intense golden-yellow color and a rich aroma of citrus fruit, vanilla, marzipan, and almond paste. On the palate, the wine is powerful and concentrated, with a full structure and beautiful oak notes that provide extra depth. The long finish is characterized by refined spiciness and elegant minerality, with each sip revealing new aromas.

      Grand Cru Kanzlerberg – A unique terroir

      At just 3.23 hectares, the Kanzlerberg is the smallest Grand Cru in Alsace and is known for its exceptional terroir. The soil consists of heavy clay, limestone, and rare grey and black Muschelkalk marl, a combination found nowhere else in Alsace. The steep south and southwest-facing slopes ensure optimal ripening of the grapes and give the wine its impressive concentration, minerality, and aging potential. Gustave Lorentz is also the sole producer of Pinot Gris Grand Cru Kanzlerberg.

      Perfect with refined gastronomic dishes

      This Grand Cru Pinot Gris is an excellent accompaniment to foie gras, rich fish dishes, game in sauce, mushroom dishes, and aged hard cheeses. Thanks to its powerful structure and refined complexity, it is a wine that pairs excellently with gourmet dinners and special occasions.

      Gustave Lorentz

      Since 1836, Gustave Lorentz has been one of the leading wineries in Alsace. The family business owns a large part of the Grand Cru Kanzlerberg and operates completely organically. Low yields, manual harvesting, and great respect for the terroir result in wines renowned internationally for their elegance, purity, and impressive aging potential.

      Why choose Gustave Lorentz Pinot Gris Organic Grand Cru Kanzlerberg?

      This wine is an excellent choice for lovers of great white wines with great depth and aging potential. The combination of rich fruit, refined oak notes, powerful minerality, and a long spicy finish makes this a Grand Cru of exceptional class. A special wine to enjoy now, but also one that can continue to mature for many years.
