Situated near Colmar, Domaine Josmeyer extends to some 28 hectares and has been certified organic since 2004. They grow all the great Alsatian grape varieties, which are distributed over the estate according to their best suited terroir. The property is home to some truly great Crus such as Herrenweg and Rorenberg, along with two of the most distinguished Grand Crus in Alsace: the Riesling Hengst and Riesling Brand.

The Brand Grand Cru is produced from a granite terroir with areas of integrated limestone – a factor which gives the wine its wonderful minerality – and which is sheltered from the wind and benefits from ideal sun exposure. Grapes are harvested by hand and undergo pneumatic pressing, fermentating for 1-4 months before maturation in 100 year-old oak barrels or stainless steel vats. This is a tremendously complex wine; well-defined mineral notes of white fruit and citrus lead into a lingering saline finish.
