"Get wet without fear!"
"With its smokier, more intense aromatic profile, the Saering Riesling is built around a dazzling blast of light. Still very immature, it will shine long after aging." (RVF 2024 guide)

Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (guide 2023) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)
About the domain :
An emblematic Bergholtz estate for two generations now. The 18 hectares of biodynamic vineyards are the result of the union of Jean Dirler and Ludivine Cadé. In the range, the fine terroirs of Saering, Kitterlé, Kessler and especially Spiegel have great ageing potential, allowing the slight residual sugars to melt away.

Domaine rated (guide 2025) 3*Stars (They represent the excellence of the French vineyard. The best terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical moment)
About the wine:
With its smokier, more intense aromatic profile, the Saering Riesling is built around a dazzling blast of light. Still very immature, it will shine long after aging.
About the domain :
Sensitive and experienced winemakers, Jean Dirler and his wife Ludivine are at the helm of this estate, founded in 1871, handed down from father to son for five generations, and biodynamic since 1998. Whatever the grape variety, the wines' precision, density and maturity have never been better: an impressive range of great dry white wines culminates in the magnificent expressions of the Spiegel, Saering, Kessler and Kitterlé grands crus, which are a must-discover and are now named after the four elements (fire, air, earth, water). This house offers an outstanding welcome, and many wines are available in older vintages. The exceptional quality of the entire range in recent vintages has earned the house its third star this year.

Rated domain (guide 2022) Recommended
About the wine:
A striking, youthful dry Riesling from Alsace, with intense aromas of hibiscus and strawberry that draw you into this very sensual wine, which shows great tension, yet evolves very gracefully on the palate. Long, full finish with a mystery of freshness, despite the hot, dry vintage. Made from biodynamically grown grapes. For drinking or cellaring.

Elegant nose, racy, mineral, striking palate, animated by a soufie, crystalline finish on bitters.
