The wine region of Alsace Grand Cru 'Kirchberg de Barr'
Grand Cru of Barr in the Bas-Rhin (sheltered southeast, 220-350 m, steep slope, brown calcareous soils on Bajocian limestone and Oligocene conglomerates, marly gravel). Riesling is the leading white with natural tension: rare precision, spring flowers, subtle mineral notes and grapefruit touches. Gewurztraminer and Pinot Gris complement with delicate fruitiness and spiced aromas from the marly-limestone soils.
The wine region of Alsace
Capital of great French aromatic whites, most often dry and single-varietal. 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.
The word of the wine: Liquid
Sweet wine containing more than 50 grams of residual sugar per liter. Sweet wines are made from grapes often affected by botrytis cinerea and concentrated either by passerillage (drying of the grapes on the vine stock), or after the harvest (straw wines), or by the cold (ice wines).
