Domaine Gueth's L'inattendu is an exceptional cuvée from Alsace that lives up to its name - "the unexpected". This wine is the result of a harmonious blend of Pinot Gris and Sylvaner, from two special parcels with rich marine limestone soils: Schuetzenrain ("protected from the rain") and Kastelweg ("path of castles"). Its location on southeastern slopes between 250 and 333 metres of altitude provides optimal sunlight and a fresh microclimate that contributes perfectly to the development of the aromas.
The wine immediately surprises with its expressive nose of fresh fruit and undergrowth, followed by a seductive subtle sweetness on the tongue. This elegantly sweet wine retains its freshness thanks to fine acidity, and charms with a full, briny finish in which notes of brioche and fresh fruit reverberate. The flavour profile is balanced, accessible and convincing - even for those who do not normally like sweet wines.
L'inattendu is an excellent aperitif wine, which also goes perfectly with fresh desserts such as lemon, rhubarb or raspberry tart. The grapes come from an average of 30-year-old vines grown organically since the 1980s. Careful harvesting, spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts and gentle vinification in inox vats create a wine with character and finesse. Natural fermentation is deliberately not fully carried through, resulting in a residual sugar content of 22.1 g/l - just enough to give the wine an elegant sweetness without becoming heavy. An unexpected but enchanting expression of Gueberschwihr's terroir.
