Rating: Bettane & Desseauve 14.5/20 (Immediate pleasure)
“Beautifully refined aromas, pure and luscious white fruit, well-balanced, with a palate that is both lively and smooth. ” (The Bettane & Desseauve Guide to French Wines 2014). A refined and delicate Pinot Blanc, opening with notes of white flowers and apple blossoms with a light touch of white peaches. A true delight!

Rated estate (2022 guide): 4 stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the estate:

Céline and Isabelle Meyer manage the estate—long led by their father Jean—with courage and discipline. Their biodynamic wines shine with their light, refined, fresh, and crisp profiles. The estate’s two flagship grands crus are the Hengst and the Brand, where the Riesling truly shines. Pinot Gris is part of a long tradition of dry wine, which is, unfortunately, not so common in Alsace.

Review by Mr. STEPHANE L. Posted on July 30, 2014

A pleasant wine to serve as an aperitif. I was a little disappointed by this bottle, which, when not chilled, reveals yeasty aromas on the nose and a (too) pronounced bitterness on the palate.
