"A 2023 that follows on from a 2022 in the Guide, and the same style for this Pinot Noir from 40-year-old vines planted on limestone soil. With an intense garnet color, the wine builds in power with notes of blackberry and spicy blackcurrant mingled with leather. Supple on the attack, with good length, it shows a certain tannic firmness without excessive austerity, retaining a fresh and delicious character, in harmony with aromas of wild berries."

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2020 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one would expect from its appellation(s))
About the estate:
The new generation of Moltès, Stéphane and Mickaël, who have been running the estate since 1995, have since converted the vineyard to organic farming. Unsurprisingly, this has given the wines more verticality and tension, and they now stand out in our annual tastings. This is just the beginning of a new adventure for this estate, founded in 1930 by Antoine Moltès.

About the estate:
A vineyard located about ten kilometers south of Colmar. Antoine Moltès sold his first wines in 1925, and his son Roland explored the terroirs. Settling in at the turn of the century, Mickaël and Stéphane built a new winery and gradually moved towards organic farming, beginning the conversion of the vineyard in 2012. They also expanded the property from 17 to 27 hectares in 2019 and created a trading company to expand their range.
