The wine region of Alsace Grand Cru 'Vorbourg'
Grand Cru of Rouffach (95%) and Westhalten in Haut-Rhin (foot of the Ballons, among Alsace's most sun-drenched, brown limestone on Oligocene conglomerates, ~35% clay, ripening foehn). Riesling, Pinot Gris, and Gewurztraminer are the signature whites — concentrated ripe fruits and taut minerality, aromatic complexity. Pinot Noir recognized as Grand Cru since the 2024 vintage (3rd Alsatian terroir), Muscat as complement.
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: Tartar (deposit)
White, chalky deposits that occur as a result of precipitation inside bottles and are often considered by consumers as a defect. They are in fact tartaric salts formed by tartaric acid, potassium and calcium naturally present in the wine. This deposit does not alter the quality of the wine and can be eliminated by a simple decanting.
