Sourced from the region’s chalk- and marl-rich slopes, it reflects a modern, hand-crafted approach to a classic white-wine terroir, with a focus on purity and mineral expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePale, bright, and crystalline in the glass, it opens with aromas of lemon zest, white peach, pear, fresh herbs, floral accents, and a subtle wet-stone character. The palate is taut and energetic, with lively acidity, saline mineral drive, and a long, elegant finish that leaves a clean, refined impression. With its structure and balance, it should also evolve gracefully over the next few years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wine comes from the Alsace region, where poor chalk and marl soils help shape its mineral precision and freshness. The grapes are hand-harvested and spontaneously fermented, then matured with minimal intervention and extended lees contact to build texture, depth, and complexity while preserving clarity of fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIdeal with seafood, grilled or roasted fish, poultry, and goat cheese. Serve chilled, around 10–12°C, to keep its freshness and aromatic detail at the forefront. Decanting is not essential, though a short aeration can help if the wine is enjoyed very young.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHunter McKirdy is associated with a thoughtful, terroir-driven style of winemaking that emphasizes craftsmanship and restraint. In Alsace, a region long celebrated for expressive whites, this approach highlights both tradition and a modern, precise interpretation of the vineyard. The result is a wine that speaks clearly of origin and method rather than winemaking excess.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bottle Hero","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54256301539665,"sku":"FFWS-2668","price":31.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/0614\/9969\/files\/DesignohneTitel_200.jpg?v=1783463314","url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/2023-les-pentes-seches-hunter-mckirdy-elsass-075l","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
