Domaine Justin Boxler Muscat Vendanges Tardives 2017 – Alsace, France

Justin Boxler Muscat Vendanges Tardives 2017
This wine marks Justin Boxler’s first experiment with Muscat grapes in a late harvest (Vendanges Tardives) – a rare and complex style where the grapes are harvested overripe and concentrated. The 2017 vintage offered perfect conditions to create an intense and aromatic wine, with a very limited edition of just 932 bottles.

The wine has a light yellow color and an initially shy nose, which slowly unfolds with floral aromas such as elderflower and other floral notes. On the tongue it is concentrated and rich, with a bold mouthfeel, while maintaining its fruitiness and freshness. The elegant and floral finish rounds off the experience perfectly.

The grapes come from vines over 20 years old, with a low yield of only 23 hl per hectare, which ensures concentration and intensity. With an alcohol content of approximately 13% and a residual sweetness of 55.82 g/L, this Muscat is both rich and balanced – ideal for desserts, cheese tables or as a unique wine experience in itself.
