Inspired by the wines of Franconia (Germany), Michel Chapoutier set out in search of Sylvaner to expand his range of Alsace wines. The freshness and crispness of the grape variety are evident, with hints of licorice and the minerality so characteristic of the winemaker.

About the estate:
Biodynamics always takes a few years to produce results, both in terms of rooting and soil life, and Michel Chapoutier knows this well, having purchased this estate in 2009 with a few friends who are lovers of fine wines. Located in northern Alsace, on a vein of blue schist, the estate is gradually making its mark. The Riesling parcels (Burg, Buehl, and Fels) are beginning to reveal the subtle nuances of their soil.
