Gewurztraminer Rs is rather demanding with regard to terroir (preferably marly), and is needless to say sensitive to the chlorosis. It is likewise sensitive to black stem. This relatively early vine variety is sometimes affected by spring frost but resists well againt winter frost.
Gewurztraminer Rs is somewhat sensitive to downy mildew, grape vine moths and to grey rot.
The clusters and the berries are small. Gewurztraminer Rs has good sugar accumulation potential and in favorable terroirs, produces excellent quality wines, moderately acidic, medium bodied, generous wines with powerful and particular aromas (rose, litchis). These aromas tend to become heavier and less eleganat in warm climatic zones.
