(2017 Vintage Notes)
Pinot Noir
fruity
aromatic
An Alsatian Pinot Noir with gentle, infused extraction, resulting in a delicate, fresh wine with beautiful aromas. Ophrys is an orchid found on the Bollenberg hill; this wine is also an ode to these little wildflowers.

Wine rated 92/100 (2017 vintage)

Rated Estate (2021 Guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)

About the estate:

The work of Jean-Paul and Marie Zusslin, who carry on the family winemaking tradition dating back to 1691, has been exemplary for several years now. Based in Orschwihr, on a beautiful vineyard, they form a passionate, charismatic duo dedicated to a job well done. And they’re taking on more and more projects: designing a new bottle, installing dozens of beehives and birdhouses in the vineyards…. Each has their own role: Marie handles marketing, while Jean-Paul works in the vineyards and the cellar. Biodynamic viticulture since 1997, meticulous winemaking, and precise aging sum up the work of this leading estate, where a plot-by-plot approach is ever-present, even in the crémants. The excellence of their lineup suggests they may move up in our rankings!
