Have you ever tried a Gewürztraminer? It’s a medium bodied dry (with a sweet bouquet) white wine from the northeastern part of France. Alsace, France is known for having the best environment for this grape varietal along with the Alto Adige region in Italy.  Today I open a producer that has been around for centuries in France called Lucien Albrecht. 

 

What is integrity? For me it falls along the line of doing what is right even when it’s difficultI while standing up for what you deeply believe. I get into how having integrity means building solid foundations and why doing the simple things right prepare you for the difficult things in life. Tune into this full episode now to learn about this producer and get all the details on this grape.  See if this one is worth the buy.
