A field blend vineyard with Riesling varieties, the different Pinots of Alsace and some Muscat and Chasselas. Organic and biodynamic farming as in all 26 hectares of Deiss vineyards with an also old-school approach to winemaking, a reference to Alsace's past. Pressing of blended grapes with whole bunches, spontaneous fermentation and maturation for 12...
Its name means the cradle of the fairies and is borrowed from the forest bordering the young vines of the Domaine aux Moines estate. The vines are grown organically and with biodynamic practices and the wine is produced with a perfectly gentle natural vinification, with indigenous yeasts and no added sulphites. The wine is vinified and matured in...

A wine from a continuous vineyard of twenty acres of dense planting, cultivated with mild techniques and with very low yields (only 4 to 5 bunches) per plant. Fermentation starts in stainless steel tanks and during the fermentation the wine is decanted into foudres and 500l demi-muids. Maturation takes place for 10 months in contact with fine lees and the...
From the steep slopes of the Pfersigberg and the fossil-rich limestone soils, the Riesling manages to combine amazing levels of ripeness and juicy character, with intense minerality and refreshing acidity. Citrus aromas, juicy white-fleshed fruit, honey and smoky mineral character lead to a rich, honeyed mouthfeel, with spicy notes and a persistent...
This particular Haute Densité, high density planting piece, is a small part of the 1er Cru vineyard "Derriere Chez Edouard" at its steepest and steepest point. So steep and densely planted that everything is done by hand. Scary when you consider the work required, as it's not just planting densities but Olivier applies all his vine-related "craziness"...
The name given to it is a reminder of the difficulty that the fruit and the vine face in the conditions of the year. The bunches selected for this micro-pressing were traditionally pressed by foot and then pressed in a vertical wooden press. In this process the must was in prolonged contact with oxygen which is reflected in the oxidative colour of the...
The vineyards are cultivated under the supervision of local winemakers and Roberto Santana from Envinate. The harvest, as with all wines, is manual and the grapes are pressed whole in large concrete tanks where they ferment spontaneously. Maturation takes place in two large oval-shaped foudres and concrete tanks, and the wine is bottled unfiltered and...
Low yields per acre, spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, and the absence of added sulfites form the basis of the winemaking process. The wine ages for 6 years and 3 months in partially filled barrels without topping up (non ouillé), with the development of a voile that protects it and defines its oxidative character. Aging takes place 60% in...
Due to the cool climate of the vineyard, Galeyrand aims for the latest possible harvest in order to achieve greater phenolic ripeness while maintaining the intensity of the acidity. The vineyard is cultivated organically (uncertified), and no sulfites are added during vinification. The grapes are pressed in a vertical wooden press, and fermentation takes...
The exceptional southern exposure vineyard in the cru village of La Haye-Fouassiere is biodynamically farmed and has been distinguished for centuries for the top quality of the wines it produces. Le Fief du Breil is slowly fermented with indigenous yeasts and then left for thirty months on the lees in Landron's large underground concrete tanks. The result...
