"What a great start!"
This Gewurztraminer is a fine example of the Alsatian vineyards! Rich and full-bodied, this wine captivates with its bold, spicy, and slightly musky notes—typical of the grape variety. The mouthwatering finish lingers, delighting the taste buds!

Rated estate (2020 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)
About the estate:
Étienne Sipp manages this prominent 40-hectare estate located on the hillsides surrounding Ribeauvillé, which includes, among others, the grand cru vineyards of Kirchberg and Osterberg. The standout wines here are, of course, the Rieslings; the terroirs of the Ribeauvillé region are wonderfully suited to this grape variety, particularly in 2013, 2014, or 2017—wines that age perfectly over several decades, as the estate demonstrates by opening old bottles from the 1970s, even though viticulture at that time was far from adhering to today’s organic standards (the estate is now certified). At the entry level, the wines clearly express the briny character that the upcoming municipal appellations are expected to require.

Rated Estate (2021 Guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)
About the estate:
Passionate about his terroirs, Étienne Sipp cultivates a vast organic vineyard, including two lovely grands crus: the Kirchberg de Ribeauvillé and the Osterberg, vinified with aging in mind and always refined. The plot-by-plot work he has been carrying out for several years is highly commendable. We have a preference for the estate’s white wines, where Riesling reigns supreme. Given the vineyard’s potential, it could achieve even greater heights, and some of the wines are disappointing; regretfully, we are removing the star this year.
