The wine
Grown on particularly rich soil, this Pinot Gris is simultaneously fresh yet full. Its characteristic smoky notes make it a good accompaniment to meat and smoked fish. You can enjoy it now or after 10 years' cellaring. It will become even more complex and can be paired with spicy foods.
About the Producer Marc Kreydenweiss
Domain Marc Kreydenweiss is a family affair: it was originally created by Marc Kreydenweiss, who then passed the reins over to his son Antoine, seconded by his wife Charlotte and daughters Zoé, Lilou and Léonie. At the foothills of the Vosges, the estate has a wide variety of soils, spans 13.5 hectares and owns four Grands Crus. The vineyard has been farmed biodynamically since 1999 and natural vinifications allow the terroir to shine through in all its typicity and character. We particularly appreciate their refined, concentrated wines which are energized by a nice acidity.
