| Most of the wines from the Charles Baur estate are made from a single grape variety, in a way that brings outs the particular qualities of each vineyard. We offer several categories of wine. Selection wine : This wine is covered by the Alsace appellation. It chiefly develops the properties of the grape variety and expresses the subtle characteristics of the vineyards. Alsace Grand-Cru : Eichberg and Pfersigberg of Eguisheim : The subsoil of the Eichberg vineyards is rich is silica, limestone and sandstone, giving the wine an extraordinary aromatic complexity that combines power and finesse. The subsoil of Pfersigberg is rich in limestone, producing elegant, fine wine that is rich in floral aromas. Alsace Grand-Cru : Brand of Turckheim : The uniformity of the granitic soil and the excellent exposure oh the slope favour Riesling, Pinot Gris and Gewurztraminer. With great finesse, subtility, and a very specific fruitiness, Grand Cru Brand wines display regal balance. Vendanges Tardives and Sélection de Grains Nobles : These wines are made with Gewurztraminer grapes. Vendanges tardives (late harvest) wine uses grapes affected by botrytis, whilst making Sélection de Grains Nobles involves painstakingly selecting individual grapes that are severely affected by botrytis. These sweetish wines are rare, exceptionally complex and keep well for many years. Crémant d’Alsace Blanc et Rosé : Effervescent wine that is prepared using the same traditional aristocratic method of its cousin from Champagne. After 24 months (Crémant Bla,c) and 12 months (Crémant Rosé) of maturing on racks, the sediment is removed from the bottles and the bottles are released for sale.
