Chasseurs de Lune Wines Klevener de Heiligenstein
It distinguishes itself by its rarity and its ancestral power to conquer the hearts of amateurs like a shower of stars on a summer evening.
IDENTITY
This grape variety, called "Vieux Traminer" has been known for a very long time in Alsace, but has gradually been replaced by a more aromatic and spicy variant... Gewurztraminer! The winegrowers of the village of Heiligenstein (and a few neighbouring villages) continue to produce this wine, which has become rare. It is made from the Savagnin Rose, which by its elegance, strength and subtle aromas, ranks among the noble grape varieties of Alsace along with the great Pinot Gris and Gewurztraminer.
