"A great way to start!

This cuvée skilfully titillates the taste buds, never boring them, so much so that they are constantly salivating. It's always a pleasant surprise to discover its biting minerality and saline finish - an unmissable classic!

Josmeyer - Pinot Blanc Mise du Printemps 2023

"Freshness in a bottle!

A foretaste of spring and summer with Josmeyer's new cuvée 2023 Mise du Printemps. We plunge into the heart of white flowers and fresh fruit that herald the arrival of summer. Fresh, fine and saline, the palate combines suppleness and firmness. We wait for it every year, and it's still a real pleasure to taste this cuvée!

Josmeyer Riesling Grand Cru Hengst-Samain 2015

4.7/5 (3 reviews)

"A dazzling success!

This Grand Cru Hengst Riesling Blanc 2015 is pure and crystal-clear, with sumptuous aromas of white fruits, lemongrass, verbena, celery and ginger, and lovely root notes that mingle with delectation, stretched by fine bitters! Still firm and perfectly ripe, it can be cellared for up to ten years without any problem. A virtuoso at the peak of his art!

Josmeyer - Alsace Gewurztraminer Les Folastries 2020

5/5 (2 reviews)

"Very spicy, powerful floral aromas, a dry wine that balances itself around its beautiful salinity on the palate, a style all too rare in Alsace." (Le Guide des Vins Bettane & Desseauve). Les Folastries takes its name from a collection of poems by Pierre de Ronsard; this is a seductive, poetic Gewurztraminer!

Josmeyer - Alsace Riesling Grand Cru Hengst 2018

4.3/5 (3 reviews)

"[...] Remarkable freshness for an exceptionally warm vintage. Lots of Amalfi lemon fruit and a slightly salty mineral freshness for those with patience. Long, earthy, herbaceous finish. Drink now, but preferably from 2025." (James Suckling). This Riesling Grand Cru surprises, tantalizes and delights the senses with its mineral structure and delicate yellow fruit notes.

Josmeyer - Alsace Pinot Gris Grand Cru Brand 2015

4.6/5 (5 reviews)

"A rich, fine and harmonious bottle".

"Pale straw green. Lemon, minerals, licorice and green apple in the very precise nose and vibrant palate, complemented by notes of pear and strawberry tart. Dense, juicy and full-bodied (6g/l residual sugar and 5.5g/l total acidity), still very young, it gives an impression of power, but with particularly refined notes of green apple and pear tart that carry through to the long, punchy finish. Wonderfully aromatic on the mid-palate thanks to its excellent acidity; no malolactic was carried out, allowing the taste of green apple to shine through." (Vinous 2018). A must-have!

Domaine Josmeyer - Pinot Gris Un Certain Regard 2016

5/5 (1 review)

"Created in memory of Jean Meyer, Un Certain Regard 2016 is a very elegant and refined Pinot Gris with a long, refined and saline finish. It has amazing finesse and salinity, with good structure and a long finish. Very iodized and refined, it was bottled with six grams of residual sugar." (Wine Advocate 2018 - Robert Parker) Cuvée Hommage!

Josmeyer - Riesling Le Dragon 2016

5/5 (1 review)

"Dry and fruity with a touch of lemon peel, you can feel the limestone strength in this wine." (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France - RVF) Made from old vines marked by their terroir, Le Dragon has a chalky minerality with delicate lemon notes. On the palate, the wine is taut, lively and full of juice. A wine that expresses itself with finesse and delicacy. Highly recommendable!

Josmeyer - Gewurztraminer Grand Cru Hengst 2011

4/5 (3 reviews)

"Made from hillside vines planted in 1964, the Gewurztraminer Grand Cru Hengst 2011 is off-dry and reveals a very clean, fresh and powerful aromatic bouquet with floral and fruity scents. Rich, smooth and dynamic on the palate, in a classic style, it is full-bodied, with intense, fleshy fruit. It balances very well between the 14.5% alcohol, the 20 grams of residual sugar and a saline, refreshing finish leaving spicy notes and tension on the palate, but without the impression of unnecessary sugar. I haven't tried it yet, but I'd love to enjoy it with Indian curry or blue cheeses." (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker) Grand Cru!

Josmeyer - Riesling Les Pierrets 2015

3.7/5 (3 reviews)

"This 2015 Riesling comes from two different parcels, one in the valley on old vines and the other on Rotenberg, on the northern slope opposite Hengst. The wine opens with a ripe, intense bouquet, yet retains brightness, elegance and minerality thanks to citrus scents and a flinty edge. Full-bodied, rich and spicy, the palate is dense, fairly concentrated and structured. Very expressive, this Riesling remains elegant and mineral. A tannic feel gives it structure and a long, compact finish. The fruit here is lush but well organized. Already ready to drink, it can age for at least another 10 years." (Wine Advocate 2017) Great terroirs and old vines!

Josmeyer - Sylvaner Peau Rouge 2018

4.3/5 (3 reviews)

A pretty white made from red-skinned sylvaner, named for its colored skin whose berries are tastier and spicier. The delicate nose opens with notes of white flowers. The palate is invigorating, with good substance, fruit and citrus. Pure, saline finish. An elegant Sylvaner!

Josmeyer - Pinot Gris Le Fromenteau 2015

4.7/5 (3 reviews)

"Nose of bread crust, very noble and rather rare for the grape variety, a very dry style, the palate is greedy and fresh, digestible with a fine saline framework, the crystalline finish offers a very gastronomic purity, this wine glides on the palate, the balance is superb for an entry-level wine. " (Le Guide des Vins Bettane & Desseauve)
