Krax 2022 - Domaine Durrman

Krax  - Domaine Durrman

Krax by Domaine Durrman is a charming and authentic white wine, produced using Riesling grapes. The 21-day maceration gives the wine a unique aromatic complexity, while maintaining the typical freshness of this grape variety. The absence of fining, filtration and addition of sulfur makes Krax a natural option, allowing the aromas and flavors of the fruit to emerge clearly. Thanks to its lightness and delicate fruity aromas, Krax is well suited to being enjoyed in company. It is the ideal companion for a sunny day, perhaps accompanied by light appetizers or summer dishes. Its ease of drinking makes it a versatile wine, perfect for relaxing with friends and enjoying moments of conviviality. An excellent example of a wine that celebrates authenticity and artisanal quality.

Service

We taste it at a temperature around 8/10 ° C. Wine to be drunk immediately but if left a few years in the cellar it can give great satisfaction.

Pairings

An ideal wine with fish-based dishes, to try with crab and cuttlefish ravioli.

Winery: Domaine Durrman

The Domaine Durrmann is located in the municipality of Andlau, a beautiful village located on the first slopes of the Vosges mountains south-west of Strasbourg where vines have been cultivated for over a thousand years. The Domaine was created in 1979 with some vineyards owned by Yann's grandfather, who was a shoemaker and supplemented his income by selling grapes. Gradually it has grown to a total area of ​​seven hectares after André, the grandson and current owner, decided to return to farming and give new life to abandoned vineyards. This lack of a consolidated and family winemaking tradition initially presented a weakness because the whole company had to be built, but it is also a strength because the company has not limited itself to traditional customs, and therefore has always been oriented towards 'innovation. The Durrmans think that the quality of the wine depends on the work in the vineyard, which is why no chemicals are used. In the cellar the approach is the most natural one can imagine; there are no chemical interventions, no clarifications, no filtration and all the wines are without added sulfur. Annual production varies from 25,000 to 40,000 bottles according to the season
