Description
Producer: Dopff & Irion
Region: Alsace
Country: France
Vineyard:
The average age of the vines is 25 years. They are short pruned, reduced to 7 or 9 bunches in order to control yields. Vegetative cover is sown every other row to encourage the vines to plunge their roots deep into the subsoils and to produce smaller berries rich in sugars and with thicker skins. It also helps to combat erosion in more steeply sloping plots.
The harvest:
The grapes are picked by hand, sorted and selected by quality and terroir. They are then transported to the cellar in small tubs called bottiches, filled only half-full to maintain the integrity of the grapes before they are pressed.
Alcohol degree: 45%
