Domain Léon Boesch
Visit Domain Léon Boesch is the jewel in the Boesch family crown. Established since 1640 in Alsace's Vallée Noble, the 11 generations of Boesch winemakers, from father to son, have patiently blended their remarkable terroirs. Gérard Boesch and his son Matthieu are now in charge of Léon Boesch. Domain Léon Boesch, which has 13 hectares of vines under organic management since 2000 to produce top-quality Alsace, Alsace Grand Cru and Crémant d'Alsace wines.

Nestled in the Vallée Noble in the heart of the Ballons des Vosges nature park, the vineyards of Domain Léon Boesch' s vineyards are meticulously cared for to deliver the very best: ploughing, natural treatments based on herbal teas and preparations, and the vines are fertilized with compost produced on the estate. Harvesting, the highlight of the year, is carried out exclusively by hand, and fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts in oak tuns. The wines of Domain Léon Boesch wines are aged on their lees until summer, and bottled in early September.

"A vintage synonymous with pleasure".

The nose of Riesling Les Grandes Lignes is reserved at first, then opens up to brioche, white flowers, morello cherry and lime. Refreshing, the palate is held in all its length by a fine acidity in the background that gives the wine its crispness. (The wine has entered a reduction phase and should reopen in spring; if you wish to drink it before then, we recommend decanting a few hours beforehand).

"A great racy wine with great potential".

"The Gewurztraminer is easily tamed by the strength of the Zinnkoepflé terroir: a still immature wine with plenty of reserves". (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2022 - RVF). This prestigious terroir takes its name "Tête au Soleil" from its southern exposure. Vines flourish here at altitudes of up to 430 meters on a terroir of shell limestone. Gewurztraminer is the king of this sloping hillside, offering a majestic wine with oriental notes of spices, star anise and finely mentholated pepper. Powerful, delicate and long on the palate.

After a short aeration, this cuvée reveals aromas of yellow fruit, pomegranate, toast and caramelized fruit. The attack is tight, powerful and slightly austere.
