Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (2020 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one has the right to expect from its appellation(s))
About the domain :
The new Moltès generation, Stéphane and Mickaël, have been running the estate since 1995, and have since converted the vineyard to organic farming. Unsurprisingly, this has given greater verticality and tension to the wines, which now stand out at our annual tastings. A new adventure that has only just begun, for this estate founded in 1930 by Antoine Moltès.
Guide Hachette des vins
Domaine noté (guide 2022) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the domain :
An estate located ten kilometers south of Colmar. Antoine Moltès marketed the first wines in 1925, while his son Roland explored the terroirs. Established at the turn of the century, Mickaël and Stéphane built a new winery and gradually turned to organic farming, converting their vineyards in 2012. They also expanded the estate from 17 to 27 hectares in 2019, and created a trading company to enrich their range.
