Rolly Gassmann Alsace Kappelweg de Rorschwihr Gewurztraminer 2019

Rolly Gassmann’s Kappelweg de Rorschwihr Gewurztraminer 2019 is a beautifully expressive Alsace white that shows exactly why the region is so revered for aromatic wines. Sourced from one of Rorschwihr’s distinctive vineyard sites, it combines Gewurztraminer’s signature perfume with the depth and precision that have made Rolly Gassmann a benchmark producer in Alsace.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a rich golden hue, hinting at the wine’s concentration and ripeness. The nose is intensely aromatic, with classic Gewurztraminer notes of lychee, rose petal, exotic spice, ripe stone fruit, and citrus peel, often underpinned by a subtle mineral edge. On the palate, it is usually textured and expansive, with a gently opulent fruit profile balanced by freshness and a precise, site-driven structure. The finish can be long and slightly spicy, with enough depth to suggest excellent aging potential over several years, during which the wine may develop more honeyed, complex nuances.

Production
