Alsace Terroirs White
Our Terroir Wines come from specific places, each providing particular complexity to the wines. Our ultimate goal in the vineyard, but also in the cellar, is to allow our wines to fully express these terroirs.
There also are Wines coming from the Grand Cru Kirchberg controlled appellation. Those vines require more than a decade to reach the deep mother rock and draw a minerality that will be revealed by wines.

Best consumed : 10 to 15 years

Dry and straight wine, typical of this grape variety with honeysuckle and beeswax notes. It is a rustic and thirst-quenching character wine. A lemony and floral attack with a powerful structure. The final is long and reveals mineral notes.

This Ribeauvillé Riesling is more complex than our regular Riesling. It develops white flowers and pineaple touches on the nose. The mouth is crunchy and powerful but keep a nice balance and elegance thanks to this ripe aciditity coming from the terroir.

This wine opens clear, fresh and fine on the nose with refreshing lemon and white flowers notes. The mouth is crystalline and delicate with lovely mineral notes and a chiseled acidity. This delicate Riesling has a tense, salty and lingering finish.
