This 2019 year a blend of Pinot Blanc, Riesling, and Gewurztraminer, Boxler’s Edelzwicker is a kaleidoscope of the flavors, aromas, and textures of Alsace—presented, of course, in the inimitable house style.
Jean Boxler, many generations removed from his ancestor of the same name that moved here from Switzerland in 1673, currently rules the roost at this humble yet incredibly exciting domaine.
Color: Straw yellow.Bouquet: Complex bouquet with notes of ripe fruit and white flowers.Flavour: Soft, round, fresh and juicy.
Luminous straw-yellow. Lemon, minerals, lime and pomaceous orchard fruit, and actually not much of the spice typically associated with granite soils. Long and lively in the mouth, and boasting noteworthy clarity and cut thanks to juicy acidity that channels the flavor molecules directly onto the taste buds.
Boxler is widely considered one of the top producers in Alsace, although this small, meticulously run estate is often overshadowed by its larger, more famous neighbors (Trimbach, Humbrecht etc.). But that suits current winemaker/proprietor Jean Boxler just fine.
From his vines planted in limestone (Boland and Heimbourg crus of Turckheim), Boxler’s Réserve bottling always has great acidity and an ethereal quality that makes it one of the most noble bottlings of this grape in the world.
Not a sweet wine as many people expect it to be, but a dry, crisp and grapey Muscat, full of aromas. This wine is partly composed of 2 young estate plots, including one on the Schoenenbourg planted with Muscat d'Alsace.
This is typically gastronomic with a cornucopia of exotic flavours – classic Gewürztraminer notes of rose petals, white pepper, lychee and lime – along with bright acidity and mouthwatering minerality.
The Boxler name is synonymous with top-notch Alsatian wine. With regional roots dating back to 1673, the family is best known for producing some of Alsace’s most serious, delicious, and ageworthy varietal white wines.
Planted in the grand cru vineyard Brand, the vines are north facing, ideal for Pinot Noir in this climate, as the wine is guaranteed to be fresh even in hot vintages. Compared to his Pinot Noir "S," also grown on granite, this cuvée is a little denser, very smooth, silky, and spicy, a wine obviously influenced by his love for Burgundy.
