The 2021 Le Jeu de Vert is from the lieu-dit Gruenspiel in Bergheim (on the border of Ribeauvillé) on Triassic keuper and marl soils. It is a field blend of Riesling, Gewurztraminer and some Pinot Gris. An adjoining parcel of Pinot Noir is pressed, and the white juice is added to the skin maceration of the field blend in tank. It aged in foudres for one year, bottled unfiltered and unsulfured. The color is a coppery pink. It has both the rose and spice notes of Gewurztraminer. The palate is rounder, richer and has an almost urgent but pleasant bitterness, displaying notes of black cherry skin macerated in Kirsch. The peppery spice verve continues all along the extended finish. (Bone-dry) ... More details

A delightfully complex and mouthwatering orange wine from the historic Deiss family in Alsace. It shows pure notes of white peach, quince and ripe Kumquat. The acidity and gentle tannin give this wine a fine-boned structure and a long, delicious finish.

Region: Alsace

For lovers of fine white and rosé wines, there are few regions in the world quite as good as France's Alsace. The region itself is a particularly fascinating one, as it has long been fought over by France and Germany, resulting in a culture and wine industry which is something of a blend of the two countries. Wines in Alsace are almost all white, although there are more wineries now producing the pale red or pinkish Pinot Noir wines which the region is also renowned for. Riesling, Gewurztraminer and Muscat are also grown in huge quantities across the Alsace, and most of the region's wines are made from these varietals. Overall, Alsace is a highly productive region of France, with over a hundred million liters of wine being produced annually from the nine permitted grape varietals the region grows.

Country: France

Year in, year out, France enjoys its prestigious reputation as the producer of the finest wines in the world. With a wine making history which spans several thousand years and owes its expertise to the Romans, it comes as little surprise that this most highly esteemed of the Old World wine countries continues to impress and enchant both novices and experts to this day. Despite the rise in quality of wines from neighboring European countries, not to mention the New World, the French wine industry continues to boom, with up to eight billion bottles being produced in recent years. However, France prides itself on always putting quality before quantity, and the wide range in fine produce is a testament to the dedication and knowledge of the wineries across the country. Indeed, from rich and complex reds to light and aromatic white wines, French wines are as varied and interesting as they are enjoyable to drink, making this country a firm favorite for wine lovers across the globe.
