About this wine
A traditional Alsace field-blend style, combining Riesling, Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer, and Muscat with a portion of Pinot Blanc for suppleness. Golden-hued and off-dry, with Muscat's grapey aromatics leading the nose and a soft, approachable palate.
A one-bottle sampler of Alsace's noble grapes — great for tasting the region's range without committing to a single variety.

リースリング・レゼルヴ
Riesling Réserve
WhiteRiesling
Willm's entry-level Riesling from the Réserve range. Pale yellow with green hues, showing fresh citrus and white-flower aromas, a well-structured, dry attack, and a persistent, faintly spicy finish. Sourced from the granite and marl-limestone slopes around Barr.
ゲヴュルツトラミネール・レゼルヴ
Gewurztraminer Réserve
WhiteGewurztraminer
The house's signature varietal, made in an off-dry style with pronounced litchi, rose, and spice aromatics. Typical vintages show roughly 17-18 g/l residual sugar balanced by the variety's naturally low acidity, giving a rounded, aromatic profile.
ピノ・グリ・レゼルヴ
Pinot Gris Réserve

A full-bodied, off-dry white with a golden hue and smoky, spicy character. Aromas of ripe quince, peach, and apricot lead to a broad, generously textured palate with a gently spicy finish.
ピノ・ブラン・レゼルヴ
Pinot Blanc Réserve
WhitePinot Blanc
A pale yellow, floral, and versatile everyday white. Aromas of elderflower, green apple, and pear lead to a smooth palate with fine balance between fresh fruit and subtle minerality, finishing clean and bright.
ピノ・ノワール・レゼルヴ
Pinot Noir Réserve
RedPinot Noir
A light, graceful red with a deep ruby color and hints of purple. The nose shows kirsch, red currant, and a touch of vanilla; the palate is fresh with smooth, unobtrusive tannins.

A modern blend of Pinot Gris and Riesling, pale yellow with subtle green hints. The nose offers peach, pear, and rhubarb; the palate is refreshing and well-balanced with a frank, fruity attack.
