Wine rated (2025 guide) 95/100

Rated estate (2024 guide): 5*Stars (Exceptional producers who represent the absolute pinnacle of quality in France and around the world)

About the estate:

For three decades, this estate—a model of Alsatian winemaking—has told the story of the Humbrecht family. Léonard, the founder, was a visionary who acquired the region’s finest terroirs, including the famous Rangen. Olivier, his son, brilliantly introduced the principles of biodynamics as early as the 1990s. And today, Pierre-Émile, who joined the estate during the very challenging 2021 vintage, is continuing their legacy, particularly with the latest acquisitions on the Sommerberg.

Rated estate (2024 guide): 4*Stars (These represent the pinnacle of French winemaking. The finest terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical experience)

About the wine:

A blend of power and elegance, the Brand Riesling is a phenomenal wine: its exceptional vibrancy, crisp and luminous finish, and invigorating length will enchant even the most jaded connoisseurs.

About the estate:

An tireless ambassador for his wines and the region, Olivier Humbrecht—the first Frenchman to earn the Master of Wine designation—has long understood the importance of work in the vineyard. He converted the estate to biodynamic farming in 1999 and is one of its leading advocates, serving as president of the Biodyvin label. This approach to viticulture has allowed him to avoid botrytis and reduce alcohol levels. The wines have evolved over the years and now exhibit a decidedly dry style, while the large casks age them several meters underground. Like all great Alsatian wines, they reach their full potential after a few years or decades of aging. The Clos Windsbuhl is a must-try, and the Rangen de Thann really comes into its own with age. Pierre-Emile, Olivier’s son, has just joined the estate. The excellence of this production, respected by all, has earned this iconic estate a place in the pantheon of our guide with a fourth star.

Wine rated (2024 guide) 96/100

About the wine:

The 2022 Riesling Brand Grand Cru comes from a granite-based vineyard. The nose is marked by citrus zest. On the palate, it is clear, juicy, and vibrant. The wine as a whole is bright, light, and effortless. A hint of grapefruit zest emerges on the finish, further revealing its aromatic layers. Its concentration, sparkling freshness, lively tannins, and distinct lightness make this an extremely well-balanced and juicy wine (bone-dry).

About the wine:

A true masterpiece of finesse. It’s difficult to adequately describe the beauty of this dry Riesling, which combines breathtaking stone fruit aromas with incredible freshness to create a wine of stunning elegance and vibrancy. Let yourself be drawn into the deep well of its astonishing minerality during the almost endless finish. Made from biodynamically grown grapes. Ready to drink or worth cellaring.
