    Marcel Deiss La Colline Rouge Vin Orange

    "La Colline Rouge" comes from the terroir of Rotenberg in the village of Bergheim, one of the winemaker's crus d'Alsace, an "off-licence" approach to the winery which is a benchmark in highlighting the characteristics of the single-vineyard cru of Alsace. In a Burgundian juxtaposition these are the producer's premier cru although in this case Deiss' interest in highlighting them is not based on a variety (as in Burgundy) but on a field blend. Rotenberg translates into French as "La Colline Rouge" (the red hill) and Deiss use the French translations of the vineyard names on the label to name their skin-contact versions of their wines from these particular terroirs. While on their whites they keep the German name of the specific terroir (Rotenberg). The wine stays for 10 months in contact with the skins in amphorae.

    More info

    Its name comes from the red soils which are calcareous and rich in iron and have this red hue. The grapes from the vineyard (part of Rotenberg) are vinified in contact with the skins and are a combination of Riesling and Pinot Gris planted in 1982. The colour is amber, the nose is surprisingly intense with a combination of spicy Asian spices, lemon zest and peel and other citrus fruits. Dry, powerful yet elegant at the same time, with fine tannins on the finish, like those left by a fine quality tea. The wine has been bottled unfiltered and without added sulphites.

      Penetrating tensions with beautiful oxidation supported by notes of citrus peel and candied lemon. Give it time to open up and it will throw a party of aromas with saffron and curry, tobacco leaves, nuts such as walnuts and roasted almonds, and earthy notes of truffle. Full of umami on the palate, minerality reminiscent of peat and shellfish, intense...
