Origin

Produced in the Alsace region of France, Joseph Cattin wines are crafted in a renowned terroir known for its exceptional white wines. The estate is located in the heart of Alsace, benefiting from a continental climate and diverse soil types that contribute to the wine’s character.

Variety

Pinot Gris is a white grape variety known for producing rich and aromatic wines. It is the same grape as Pinot Grigio but typically vinified in a style that emphasizes fuller body and complexity.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested to ensure optimal ripeness and quality. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures to preserve the fresh and fruity aromas. The wine may undergo a short period of aging on fine lees to enhance texture and complexity before bottling.

Tasting notes

  • Aroma: Intense and complex bouquet featuring notes of ripe pear, white peach, and subtle floral hints.
  • Palate: Medium to full-bodied with a smooth texture, balanced acidity, and flavors of stone fruits, honey, and a touch of spice.

Food pairings

  • Light poultry preparations including roasted chicken or turkey with herbs.
  • Rich fish dishes like salmon or trout with creamy sauces.
