The family-owned winery, created in 1854 in Alsace, near Colmar, is committed to organic and biodynamic farming. Today, the winery is run by two sisters, Celine and Isabelle, following in their fathers footsteps. The vineyard, which spans 24.4 hectares, has been organically and biodynamically cultivated since 2000 and certified since 2004.
The philosophy of biodynamics emphasises the importance of a living and balanced soil for the vine to thrive harmoniously and adapt to climate change. In the cellar, the wines ferment naturally at their own pace.
This wine is part of the “Artist Series”, with the label changing every 3 years. La Mise du Printemps is made from 40-year-old vines of Auxerrois and Pinot Blanc. Due to tradition and a historical perspective, Alsace wineries are permitted to label a wine with Auxerrois as Pinot Blanc. The wine is made from around 20 plots, ranging from the northern slopes of the Grand Cru Hengst to the alluvial and gravel terroirs around Wintzenheim.
