Marcel Deiss Langenberg

The Marcel Deiss Langenberg is an exceptional white wine produced from the fertile and complex soils of the Langenberg vineyard near Saint Hyppolyte in Alsace. Situated on sunny slopes, this vineyard boasts a unique soil composition of weathered granite, low in nutrients. This forces the vines to root deeply, resulting in a wine of exceptional complexity and a subtle saline minerality. Several grape varieties, including Riesling, Pinot Gris, Pinot Beurot, Muscat, and Pinot Noir, are grown in this vineyard, all blended together. This creates a harmonious blend of flavors that perfectly reflect the unique characteristics of the terroir.
