"A sublime Riesling

This Riesling reveals delicate citrus aromas on the nose. On the palate, it's fine and delicate, with lovely tension that carries through to the long finish. The genius of Maxime Barmès lies in this Steingrubler Grand Cru!

Expert opinion

Bettane & Desseauve

Bettane & Desseauve

Domain rated (2020 guide) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)

About the domain :

Maxime Barmès and his sister Sophie are now in charge of the estate, with their mother Geneviève still present. A vineyard of almost 19 hectares, cultivated for over a decade according to the precepts of biodynamic viticulture and with increasingly advanced practices (sheep and beehives in certain vineyards, tree planting...). With each passing vintage, the wines seem to gain in tension and dry spirit, which we can only welcome. The greatest successes at the domaine are without hesitation the Pinot Noirs and Rieslings, year after year. The estate has just released a 2009 Pinot Noir Vieilles Vignes from the Hengst Grand Cru, a wine that was vinified by François Barmès two years before his tragic accident.

Guide Hachette des vins

Guide Hachette des vins

Domain rated (guide 2021) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)

About the domain :

Born in 1985 from the marriage of Geneviève Buecher and François Barmès, both heirs to winemaker-owner families dating back to the 17th century, this estate is located 5 km southwest of Colmar. Biodynamically farmed since 1998 (certified in 2001), it now boasts 7 terroirs, including 3 grands crus. After the death of their father in 2011, the two children of the founding couple, Sophie and Maxime (in the cellar), joined the estate.

Rated (guide 2024) 95/100 (Vintage 2021)

Domaine rated (2021 guide) 2*Stars (These great estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, because of their consistency and the excellence of their production, must be included in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).

About the domain :

Maxime Barmès, supported on the domaine by his mother Geneviève and his sister Sophie, confirms and continues the work he has been doing for almost thirty years to maintain the quality of his wines at the highest level. Rigorous biodynamic work in the vineyard and careful monitoring in the cellar make this estate one of the most serious in the region. The latest vintages are exemplary: the wines have gained in precision, and the grands crus are in the inner circle of great wines, with exceptional air-holding capacity, capable of improving over several days.
