  White wine

   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

Serving temperature 12°-14°

Shellfish and Scallops. Do you want to amaze? Pair it with a goat’s cheese!

A simply sensational Riesling

Scherwillerm, Alsace

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.
