Produced from a 1.3-hectare plot on limestone-sandstone soil, the Pinot Noir Les Jardins is an Alsatian red that benefits from expertise infused with talent and passion. The first notes are nutmeg and flint, followed by black cherry and licorice... The tannins are full-bodied and rich, silky with a very long finish of red fruit. A truly beautiful Alsatian red!

Rated estate (2024 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, setting the standard in its sector)
About the estate:
After returning to the estate in 1999, Matthieu Boesch was quick to make the switch to organic and biodynamic farming, earning certification as early as 2006. However, while these sustainable practices are one thing, it took more time for the wines to find their balance in the glass—for the added acidity and structure to develop depth and complexity. For the past two vintages, we’ve found that this is now the case. Good news!

Rated estate (2024 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
As ardent advocates of biodynamics for over a decade, Matthieu and his wife Marie represent the eleventh generation of the Léon Boesch estate, located in the heart of the Vallée Noble. Here, the Zinnkoepflé grand cru is now dedicated exclusively to Gewürztraminer, with the aim of establishing it as a benchmark for a dry, full-bodied style. The estate has been practicing biodynamic agriculture since 2000, and the winery inaugurated in Westhalten in 2010 is a bioclimatic model. The wines possess depth and best express the terroirs of the region.

It has a nice body, but the aroma is a bit too meaty.

A pleasant red that’s worth waiting a few years for its tannins to mellow....
