Alsace Blanc Riesling Schieferberg is a white wine from Domaine Achillèe in Scherwillerm in Alsace, and is obtained from pure Riesling grapes grown biodynamically. The harvest is manual from vines located on shale soil in Bernardvillé with exposure to the South and South-East and a slope of up to 40%. Fermentation is spontaneous with very long maceration of 9 months and refinement for a further 22 months in steel. Alsace Blanc Riesling Schieferberg is perfect paired with scallops or goat’s cheeses and has an aging potential of approximately 50 years. It is elegant and deep in the mouth, long and very fresh, with hints that range from lime to white pepper, from camphor to nutmeg.

Vines planted on shale soils in Bernardvillé, on plots facing South and South-East with a hellish slope of 40%. Approximately 9 months of fermentation and a total aging of 22 months in steel. In the mouth there is elegance and finesse at the highest levels, highly calibrated alcohol content and devastating depth. Aging expectancy: 50 years.
Space nose of mint, lemon, lime, white pepper, cloves, nutmeg and camphor. An unprecedented riot of citrus fruits and spices.
Crazy also in the mouth, with an incredible freshness that balances an important body. Very elegant and persistent, a pleasure for the palate

Yves Dietrich and his sons Pierre and Jean have created a true microcosm, unique and contagious.
Yves is responsible for the vineyard, Jean takes care of the cellar and Pierre takes care of the commercial part.
In 1991 Yves decided to take over the family farm, which he converted to organic in 1999 before the big leap into the biodynamic world in 2003.
In 2017, a bioclimatic cellar was created inside the largest thatched building in Europe, shared with the Domaine Jean Paul Schmitt.
The company has 18 hectares and the wines are precise and direct, engaging and clear.
