Presentation
The vintage
Strength and determination: two words that describe the 2022 Alsace growing season perfectly. Challenges included heavy frost during spring, hailstorms in June and severe drought in the summer. The talents of our vineyard team paid off and we harvested perfect grapes beginning August 26. In the cellar, the vintage is promising. The wines have lovely acidities, intense aromas and the beautiful typicity of their terroir.

Reviews
"This is clear and vibrant, with crystalline acidity driving notes of apple, quince blossom and oolong tea, with a slight crunch on the mineral-infused finish."
"Det er altid super kompetent, når Sipp Mack orkestrerer fine Alsace-vine. Om den ene eller den anden stilart er bedst, afhænger af din smag, men her får du en Pinot Blanc, der holder sig i lidt diskrete toner. De let parfumerede noter er holdt i kort snor, og du skal slynge, slupre og smaske dig frem til de fine nuancer. Det kan få nogle til at synes, at den er lidt tam, og jeg kunne da også godt savne lidt mere saft og kraft. Men thumbs up for at søge de fine nuancer fremfor at tage den lette løsning og give de blomstrede og udadvendte noter alt for meget magt. "
