The wine region of Alsace Grand Cru 'Sommerberg'

Grand Cru of Niedermorschwihr and Katzenthal in the Haut-Rhin (very steep south-facing slope up to 45°, altitude up to 400 m at the foot of the Trois-Épis, two-mica Turckheim granite, unique mineral granitic sands). Riesling is the signature white — intensely mineral and racy with notes of mint, verbena, citrus and aromatic herbs, taut aromatic complexity. Powerful and elegant, built for long ageing, characteristic freshness; benchmark Alsatian Riesling.

Straight, mineral Riesling (lemon, gunflint), opulent, exuberant Gewurztraminer (lychee, rose, spices), round, smoky Pinot Gris, floral, crisp Muscat, supple Pinot Blanc. Fine, fruity Crémants d'Alsace, exceptional sweet Vendanges Tardives and Sélection de Grains Nobles. 15,500 ha at the foot of the Vosges on varied soils, 51 Grands Crus since 1975.
