Fully organic viticulture

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 winery is located in Rouffach, in southern Alsace. Here, Clos Saint Landelin, a monopoly of the Muré family, covers twelve hectares. It is situated on the southern slope of the Grand Cru Vorbourg. The steep, south-facing slopes are cultivated in terraces. The soil is clay and limestone with a high proportion of stones. The subsoil consists of calcareous sandstone from the Bajocian and calcareous conglomerates from the Oligocene. The vineyard is organically farmed. For about 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 ensure good drainage of the clay and limestone soil and also offer favorable conditions for the vines.
