Golden in colour, it leans into citrus and orchard fruit with hints of ripe pear, lemon zest and a gentle floral lift. There’s a subtle savoury edge too – a touch of herbal character and a light mineral note that gives it shape. On the palate, it’s bright and lively, with crisp acidity keeping everything in check, while a soft, rounded texture stops it feeling too sharp. The finish is clean, lightly zesty and just long enough to keep things interesting. A really well-balanced Alsace white wine that quietly shows its quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop food pairings:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFresh seafood like prawns, mussels or grilled fish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharcuterie boards with cured meats and pickles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft, creamy cheeses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eKate Says\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"An understated gem and from one of our favourite producers. It’s the kind of wine that once you’ve tried it, you’ll keep coming back. Definitely one worth discovering if you’re after something a bit different from your usual white. Think somewhere between a good Pinot Gris and a lighter style of Sauvignon Blanc.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eProducer Info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDomaine Charles Frey\u003c\/strong\u003e is a long-established family estate in Alsace, with roots in Dambach-la-Ville going back to the 18th century. They were ahead of the curve when it came to organic and biodynamic winemaking, converting the vineyards in the 1990s. Working with granitic soils and a hands-off approach in the cellar, they focus on letting the vineyards do the talking, producing wines that feel honest, characterful and true to Alsace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it’s made:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVarieties: 100% Sylvaner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHarvested when ripe but still fresh to keep that natural acidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGentle pressing to keep flavours clean and precise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFermented in temperature-controlled tanks to hold onto the fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAged with minimal intervention in a natural, bioclimatic cellar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to know:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Alsace, France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e White, still, light- to medium-bodied\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVegan:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy we love it:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003eAlsace white wine\u003c\/strong\u003e is a great introduction of how good Sylvaner can be – fresh, gently mineral and really food-friendly.
