The vintage
The year 2020 will remain etched in memory. A vintage filled with emotion, professional decisions, mutual support, and cherished family moments.
The warm spring, dry summer, and the rains in August led to the harvest starting on the 22nd of the same month. The earliest in the history of Alsace viticulture to date.
Despite everything, our objectives were met: preserving the beautiful acidity, the finesse of the aromas, and the balance between alcohol and sugar. The 2020 vintage is harmonious, aromatic, and structured
