The wine region of Alsace Grand Cru 'Winzenberg'

Grand Cru in Blienschwiller (Bas-Rhin), 19. 2 ha at 233–320 m, south and south-east facing in a steep slope, two-mica siliceous granite rich in quartz, depth 30–50 cm, dry sunny late terroir: Riesling is the signature white — racy and precise with the mineral finesse and elegance characteristic of granite, vibrant citrus and taut salinity. Gewurztraminer as complement, Pinot Gris and Muscat aromatic, drainage protecting from disease.


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: Metis (grape variety)
