"A complete wine underlined by ripe fruit notes. The balance is mastered with a pleasant citrus support on the finish." (La Revue des Vins de France Spécial Millésime 2013 - June 2014) A dry, taut white with beautiful aromatic precision on citrus fruit... Delicious!

Alsace
Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (2015 guide) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
About the domain :
The Fuchs have been winemakers in Ribeauvillé for 4 generations now, since Paul joined his parents Cathy and Henry in 2006. The estate has been certified organic since 2011, and the wines already express the purity and elegance of Ribeauvillé's saline terroirs. The dry wines taste dry, and the late harvest avoids the trap of concentration in favor of balance, finesse and harmony.
