Authentic and sincere wines
We make Alsace wines as we like them
Generation after generation, we have continued to work in the same family vein, with each era bringing specific increases in quality. The same goes for our wines. We continue to produce varietal wines that are faithful to the Alsatian tradition. But today we are careful to preserve their natural aromatic character, and also keen to offer wines that are more subtle and less demonstrative.
In the same way, by deliberately low alcoholic degrees, we seek freshness for our wines that we want greedy and accessible. For our plot wines and our grands crus, which are more structured, the grape varieties must serve the terroir and not the other way around. We prefer not to distinguish our wines according to whether or not they contain residual sugar. Rather than talking about "sweet" or "dry", we prefer to refer more simply to the balance of a wine. In order to achieve the character and harmony we want to give the wine, it may therefore contain a little sugar or none at all.
all our wines will be organically certificated by 2023

•
This Sylvaner comes from 2 plots with great eastern exposure on locations called Lingsmatt and Hertaecker. These terroirs are located between Eguisheim and Husseren-les-Châteaux at a high altitude, the grapes therefore ripen slowly while maintaining excellent sanitary conditions. The Sylvaner is harvested early to keep the juice fresh without too much concentration and without residual sugars. Its balance on the palate also reflects the complexity of the marno-sandstone terroir, with an enveloping palate based on fine and saline acidity.

As its name suggests, this Riesling comes from a plot located near the village of Husseren-les-Châteaux and next to the Grand Cru Pfersigberg.

The Riesling acquires a dry and assertive character, a mixture of yellow fruits (peach, citrus), and power in structure. The magic operates between the elegance provided by the poverty of the first layer of soil and the richness of constitution provided in depth by the limestone associated with the clay. A charming and crunchy balance, all sublimated by a crystalline finish.

Our Pinot Gris Grand Cru comes from two plots, one located in the heart of the Grand Cru on the place called Eich (the oak) and the other at Heiligen Brunen, a beautiful full east slope slightly in altitude. The first plot gives power and race thanks to the sandstone marls, offering a wide, deep and very concentrated structure. The second plot, more in height, brings balance to the wine: since it is less ripe, it provides an acid and saline structure. The bouquet is a complex association of yellow fruits, vanilla, hazelnut and almond. From one vintage to another, its balance can vary from half-dry to mellow but still in the class of a great wine with a beautiful finish.

ASSEMBLAGE
Disponible et monopole des cuvées natures chez notre caviste parisien, Gamma GT.
60 % de Riesling et 40 % de Sylvaner, cela annonce et prédit une belle tension : une cuvée qui décoiffe par sa fraîcheur, l'aromatique est plutôt discret et citronné, la bouche est donc fraîche et légèrement structurée par des tanins subtils. L'équilibre est sec.
DE MACÉRATION
Disponible et monopole des cuvées natures chez notre caviste parisien, Gamma GT.
Une macération de 20 jours avec assemblage assez original : 70 % Gewurztraminer, 15 % Muscat, 15 % Riesling. Très ouvert et joliment aromatique il se goûte sec avec un fruité d'un très grande franchise, la papaye, la mangue ou même la bergamote, de fines épices, une petite touche de cailloux, un léger gras qui nappe agréablement la langue… et surtout beaucoup de gourmandise.
Le tout sans soufre ni filtration.
ROUGE
Disponible et monopole des cuvées natures chez notre caviste parisien, Gamma GT.
Un 100 % Pinot Noir macéré en grappe entière pendant 1 semaine. La couleur est d'un rose profond et le nez s'adonne à des notes de fruits rouges confits. La bouche est soyeuse, ample et tonifiée par un fin perlant. Sur la griotte, la framboise, la terre fraîche. La finale est gourmande avec une persistance sur la cerise, parfait sur des viandes ou des fromages doux.
