The wine region of Alsace Grand Cru 'Wiebelsberg'

Grand Cru of Andlau, Bas-Rhin (12. 52 ha at 227–330 m, south to south-east facing, warm and dry terroir with steep slopes, porous sandy soils of pink-brown siliceous and ferruginous Vosges sandstone with cemented quartz grains): Riesling is the white king (95%) — chiselled and mineral, vivid citrus, taut salinity and airy finesse when young, gaining depth with age. Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer and Muscats as minor complements.


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: Film maceration

A technique that consists of leaving the grapes to macerate in the open air at a low temperature before fermentation, thus enhancing the aromatic expression of the wine.
