Fully organic vineyard

This magnificent winery was founded in 1650. Thanks in part to the private ownership of the Clos Saint Landelin terroir, they are among the absolute top. The vineyard is approximately 35 years old and produces truly beautiful Pinot Gris grapes. Because the roots penetrate so deeply into the soil, the grapes are rich in minerals, limestone, and freshness. For the past ten years, the estate has been farming its own vineyards entirely organically. To restore the vineyards to their original state, they are also experimenting with dense planting. Pierres Seches means "dry stone." The Rouffach terroir lies in the sub-hills of the Vosges Mountains. To develop their vines, the elders built terraces of dry stone called Murén. These terraces ensure good drainage of the clay and limestone soil and also provide ideal conditions for the vines.

Hand harvest for this Pinot Gris Pierres Seches

The entire harvest is handled by hand to ensure only the finest grapes reach the bottle. The harvest is transported to the winery in small, twenty-kilo crates, where the wine receives the utmost attention. Quality is paramount, and the aroma and flavors of the wine are central to the entire process. This results in a beautiful aroma of yellow peach and pear, along with subtle nuances of fresh apricot jam, honey, and cardamom. The palate is round with plenty of finesse, a lovely long finish, and a truly impressive finish. Pinot Gris produces a crisp, dry wine with plenty of gastronomic appeal. It pairs well with fish in sauce or white meat.
