Confiture Fraise Charlotte et Rhubarbe D’Alsace
Christine Ferber
Charlotte Strawberries and Rhubarb
Nothing fills the air with magic quite like the day a new shipment of Christine Ferber’s marvelous Alsatian jams arrive. It seems practically destined that she would become, as she’s known by her admirers, the Jam Fairy, having descended from three generations of pastry chefs. No surprise then, that La Maison Ferber’s pastries and jams have garnered worldwide attention. Christine’s small batch productions of strictly seasonal fruits are accented with singular touches—for example, Gewurztraminer gelée with rose petals; raspberry with pink peppercorn; and, one of our shop’s current favorites, tart Montmorency cherries in Kirsch (we like to spoon it over Basque cheesecake). We are delighted to bring these deeply unique flavor combinations to the States. Words simply don’t do these beauties justice, so explore!

2019 Pinot Gris
France | Alsace
Sweet spices conceal an edgy undercurrent, making this Pinot Gris both versatile and alluring.

2023 Muscat
France | Alsace
A masterfully made Muscat is an aromatically divine experience.

2019 Riesling Grand Cru “Pfersigberg Trois Châteaux”
France | Alsace
Pfersig means “peach,” and the wine’s subtle whispers of white peach are adorable, and then the bouquet keeps growing more expansive, more intense, grander.

2022 Muscat
France | Alsace
Each sip is akin to biting into a piece of fresh-picked fruit, with an earthy minerality and bright acidity augmenting the palate-coating flavors of peach, orange zest, and white flowers.

2020 Pinot Gris Grand Cru “Brand”
France | Alsace
Decadent, rich, stony, and a touch off-dry—hard not to love.

2019 Pinot Gris “Dorfburg”
France | Alsace
That grapes can be cajoled and fashioned to make such a liquid is miraculous.

2022 Pinot Gris “Réserve”
France | Alsace
From the exceedingly fine and elegant nose to the creamy and lacy texture, the overall balance and touch, and its hint of salty freshness, this wine shows how understated, finessed, and downright glorious dry Pinot Gris can be in Alsace.

2020 Pinot Gris Grand Cru “Florimont”
France | Alsace
Everything that comes from Domaine Albert Boxler seems to have an extra dash of magic, and this debut bottling of Pinot Gris from the grand cru of Florimont is no exception.

2021 Riesling Grand Cru “Muenchberg”
France | Alsace
Decidedly lean in its youth, but with hints of glycerin, apple wax, and resin that will evolve into lavish layers as it ages.
About The Region
Alsace
Tragically, Alsace might be the most misunderstood wine region of France. In spite of its long history of viticulture and tremendous diversity of pedigreed terroirs, a past fraught with marketing mishaps has left consumers baffled as to what exactly to expect inside one of these mysterious tall, thin bottles.
The good news, on the other hand, is that a new wave of quality-oriented growers is working hard to put Alsace in its rightful place as one of the world’s most fascinating sources of fine white wine. By embracing tradition, respecting terroir, and making a concerted effort to better communicate the countless virtues their wines have to offer, they have succeeded in putting Alsace back on the map.
Crafted from a number of grape varieties and beautifully interpreting the region’s mosaic of soil types, our Alsace imports are by and large dry whites offering exceptional versatility at table. While each of these selections is ready to be uncorked tonight, the finest among them are also capable of maturing for many, many years in a cool cellar. Expect kaleidoscopic aromatics, lively acidities, and loads of terroir transparency in these skillfully crafted masterpieces. Enjoy a foray into the thrilling world of the world’s most underrated wine region, and certainly do not hesitate to contact our sales staff with any questions as you take off on this mouth-watering adventure.

I want you to realize once and for all: Even the winemaker does not know what aging is going to do to a new vintage; Robert Parker does not know; I do not know. We all make educated (hopefully) guesses about what the future will bring, but guesses they are. And one of the pleasures of a wine cellar is the opportunity it provides for you to witness the evolution of your various selections. Living wines have ups and downs just as people do, periods of glory and dog days, too. If wine did not remind me of real life, I would not care about it so much.
