A blend of 13 Alsatian grape varieties, grown on granite, grey and marl limestone, in the villages of Kaysersberg, Ammerschwihr, Zellenberg, Rodern and Ribeauvillé. The vines are farmed according to the principles of biodynamic viticulture. Manual harvest and controlled yields. Vinification: direct pressing, transfer into old barrels so fermentation and maturation for a year on lees. Bottled without filtration, no added sulfites.
