Grand Cru of Rodern and Saint-Hippolyte in Haut-Rhin (~23 ha at 250–360 m on steep south-south-east slopes, granite terroir with pink Vosges sandstone, 600–700 mm rainfall, quickly warming spring soil promoting early ripening). Pinot Gris as the flagship white (61%) and Gewurztraminer (35%) — opulent profiles with the characteristic finesse of granite, ample ageing potential. Riesling (4%) as a discreet complement; the two lead varieties account for over 95% of declared wines.
