Domaine Albert Boxler Wine

Niedermorschwihr, Alsace

The young Jean Boxler who produces the wines today has inherited his father's talents and perfectionism. The domaine produces a range of generic, (no lieu- dits) and Grand Cru Riesling, Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer and Muscat from the Brand and Sommemberg. One remarkable aspect to Jean's winemaking methods is that instead of bottling, say, one Sommerberg, he prefers to separate out the terroirs within a Grand Cru.

One of the key qualities which lift these wines above their peers is their impeccable balance and harmony. They are the 'essence' of each variety. Despite my numerous visits to the domaine and Jean's polite answers to my never-ending questions, I am still at a loss to explain how such consistently sumptuous wines are produced. Jean keeps the 'family recipe' a close guarded secret!

Full yellow color. Reticent nose shows a more honeyed, marmaladey character. Thick and superconcentrated, with the noble rot character bringing a concentration of the wine's sugar and acidity. A step up in intensity and inner-mouth energy from the "regular" Br... [more details]

2004 Domaine Albert Boxler Pinot Blanc 'B'

Usually dispatched within 24-48 hours

‘From old vines of “true” Pinot Blanc (a.k.a. “Klevner”) on granite – was vinified in tank rather than fuder due to its small volume. Lightly-toasted almond and hazelnut, peony, ripe apple and Bosc pear mark the nose. In the mouth, this is lush and subtly oily... [more details]

2004 Domaine Albert Boxler Pinot Gris Brand

Usually dispatched within 24-48 hours

Ripe, pure, complex bouquet – broader. The palate follows from the nose – less mineral than the Sommerberg with ripe, luscious fruit and real concentration. Balanced by a fabulous lift of acidity. Great length but much less direct – much broader on the finish.... [more details]
