France, Alsace
90 Points Wine Enthusiast 2017 vintage

tasting note

This wine shows an incredibly refined nose with great aromatic persistence where ancient rose, leather and musky spices combine together. The palate is elegant as well as firm. The residual sweetness does not bring any heaviness; instead, it allows a better integration of the tannic structure.

points of distinction

  • Oligocene calcareous soil (calcaire) after which this wine is named lends expressive minerality and vibrant acidity
  • Vines average 30 years old and grow on steep, west-facing slopes yielding fruit-driven, vibrant wines
  • Organically and biodynamically grown
