Charles Frey Maceration is a natural white maceration wine made using 90% Gewurztraminer and 10% Riesling. It’s dry, floral and subtle.

The Charles Frey winery established itself at the beginning of the 18th century and remains family-owned, with the third generation of full-time winemakers now managing the business. They own 14 hectares of vines across five distinct terroirs. The vineyards are biodynamic and began their move towards organic farming in 1997.

The winemakers macerate this wine with an extended 15-day skin contact, which gives it a deeper colour and a rich, spicy aroma. They carry out this process in stainless steel tanks, followed by a 9-month ageing period in 600L barrels. The winemaking process involves natural vinification with minimal addition of sulphites at bottling, creating an unfiltered wine with natural deposit.

Tasting Notes

Appearance: The wine exhibits a deep amber color, indicative of its extended skin contact.

Nose: A complex bouquet of apricot, blood orange, peach, and yellow apple aromas, with subtle floral notes.

Palate: Dry and fresh, the wine offers a medium to full body with a harmonious balance of fruit and spice. The tannins are gentle, and the finish is clean and crisp.

Enjoy Charles Frey Maceration with spicy dishes or blue cheeses.
