Le Domaine Zind-Humbrecht a été créé en 1959 par la fusion des exploitations viticoles des familles Humbrecht, viticulteurs à Gueberschwihr, et Zind, viticulteurs à Wintzenheim. Le Domaine Zind-Humbrecht figure parmi les plus renommés d'Alsace et de France, situé au coeur du vignoble du Herrenweg de Turckheim, et qui étend ses parcelles sur les plus beaux terroirs de la région. Héritier d'une tradition familiale remontant à 1620, Léonard Humbrecht passe désormais le flambeau à son fils Olivier, ingénieur agronome de formation, qui a fait évoluer progressivement l'ensemble du vignoble vers la culture en biodynamie, couronné par une certification ECOCERT dès 2000.
Le savoir-faire du Domaine Zind-Humbrecht, tant dans le soin apporté aux vignes que dans les techniques de vinification des vins, ne sert qu'un seul et même objectif: l'amélioration perpétuelle de la qualité. Une qualité au rendez-vous, délivrée avec une régularité exemplaire obtenue par une observation rigoureuse des différents terroirs. Les vins Alsace et Alsace Grand Cru du Domaine Zind-Humbrecht figurent parmi les tout meilleurs du vignoble alsacien et sont incontestablement des références durablement établies.
"The Pinot Gris Clos Jebsal Selection de Grains Nobles 2005 can only be described as "out of the ordinary" [...] Aromas of tea, honey, apricot jam and fresh lemon assault you right from the glass. On the palate, it's almost gelatinous, but with a citric intensity and concentration worthy of a laser. [...] Count on a more bearable concentration in 15 to 20 years, and on the fact that it will outlive anyone reading this note today." (Wine Advocate 2008)
« Clos Windsbuhl est sans doute encore plus révélateur des avantages d'un site frais, venteux et calcaire dans un millésime où des poids de moût extrêmement élevés étaient le prix à payer pour obtenir un Gewurztraminer au goût vraiment prononcé. Viandes fumées, cannelle, muscade, clou de girofle, litchi, ananas et parfum décadent de rose et de lys se combinent pour créer un arôme séduisant ainsi qu'une bouche luxuriante et crémeuse aux multiples facettes. Non seulement les fruits frais sont étonnamment juteux en fin de bouche, mais le vin a également une flottabilité étonnante pour un vin titrant près de 14 % d'alcool, et une pointe de salinité stimule les glandes salivaires tout en complétant parfaitement la floralité liquide et l'aura de caramélisation qui se dégagent également. Il y a même une suggestion de craie et de pierre pour fondre cet hommage grandiose à son site, à son cépage et à son producteur. Plus il est exposé à l'air, plus il révèle son charme. » (Wine Advocate 2014)

"The bouquet is a cloud of smoke and flint. Very juicy on the palate, but also very elegant, with remarkable freshness for this grape variety. Stony finish." (James Suckling 2023)
« Des agrumes étonnants, un corps généreux et une excellente concentration avec une acidité vibrante font de ce vin un riesling sec très expressif et attrayant, qui fait tout ce que les gens attendent du Sancerre et qu'il ne fait pas toujours. Longue finale vivifiante. » (James Suckling 2023). Une belle cuvée pour découvrir l'univers d'Olivier Humbrecht !
« Le nez est encore fermé et se livre peu. La bouche a une forme voluptueuse, mais elle est étroitement corsetée : tout est présent, mais encore étroitement retenu. Les fruits de la pêche ont une douceur sereine et facile qui est parfaitement contrebalancée par la fraîcheur de l'orange et du citron Meyer. Ce vin est équilibré et sucré, mais il est contrebalancé et coupé par une immense fraîcheur. Les arômes doivent encore se déployer pleinement. L'orange sanguine et la pêche sont prometteuses. C'est la texture fluide et équilibrée de cette vendange tardive qui se distingue, ainsi que sa pureté suprême. » (Wine Enthusiast 2017)
Cuvée au nez volcanique, dégageant des notes de silex et de pierres mouillées. En bouche, sa grande minéralité offre une belle élégance et délicatesse. On retrouve une palette complexe d'arômes de fumée, d'épices et d'herbes à la finale sec et saline. Sa longueur est impressionnante, sans lourdeur. Comme la plupart des 2021, il aura besoin de temps pour se développer complètement et atteindre une expression aromatique plus fruitée. Rangen élégant et intense, portant l'énergie de ce terroir !

« D’un équilibre sec, puissant, une grosse matière en bouche qui explique cette texture grasse, presque huileuse, finale épicée longue et persistante. » (Le Guide Bettane + Desseauve) • « Encore un vin très singulier que ce Gewurztraminer du Rangen, doté d'une impressionnante profondeur de saveurs, parfaitement sec et marqué du sceau du terroir : son marqueur de pierre ponce et de fumé le rend inimitable et glorieux. » (Le Guide RVF 2023). Toute la noblesse d'une Grand Cru !
« Il n'y a rien d'évident dans ce Gewurz intensément épicé. En effet, étudier ses arômes revient à résoudre un puzzle complexe. Il est très puissant et crémeux, avec un caractère succulent de fruits tropicaux, la minéralité audacieuse équilibrant la touche de douceur. La bouche n'en est pas moins intrigante, grâce à des profondeurs fraîches qui se révèlent de plus en plus sur la finale très raffinée. Issu de raisins cultivés en biodynamie. À boire ou à garder. » (James Suckling 2021). Quelle classe !
"The pure, vibrant Clos Häuserer is full of energy, with flavors of matcha tea and nectarine and vigorous length. (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2021 - RVF ) A spirited, flavorful Riesling to discover!
