Demoiselle

Domaine Rietsch’s Demoiselle is a lively orange Gewürztraminer from Alsace that highlights the grape’s playful side. The fruit comes from two different vineyards—Weinberg in Heiligenstein and the Grand Cru Zotzenberg in Mittelbergheim—both rooted in clay-limestone soils that add structure and subtle complexity. A short maceration of whole grapes brings out generous floral and citrus aromas, with gentle touches of licorice and spice. On the palate, this wine offers moderate freshness, a smooth feel, and a pleasantly long finish. Crafted with spontaneous fermentation and minimal intervention, Demoiselle reflects Rietsch’s respect for nature and traditional winemaking. This bright and expressive orange wine pairs well with lightly spiced dishes or a cozy evening with friends, inviting you to explore Alsace in every sip.
