Anders Frederik Steen notes on "Tout ce qui est beau revient 2020"

A wine made of rich and very aromatic Gewürztraminer at harvest time with a beautiful noble rot. We made a direct press of the grapes same day as we harvested them to be able to extract as much of these flavours as possible.

After a few days of oxidation, the juice went into fiberglass cuves to ferment over winter. After a soutirage in the spring of 2021, time just enough to add these yeasty and autolytic flavors that we love so much, the wine went into the cellar where it finished its fermentation and stayed another 3 ½ years in old barrels (228lt barrels) without topping up.

Gewürztraminer is in general moving slow when it comes to the development of flavours, and it took close to two years of élevage, before the oxidation started to make its mark. But as it always goes with aromatic varieties like Gewürztraminer, once the oxidation arrives, the oxidation takes its place and create together with the other aromas a beautiful balance.
