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

The region of Alsace, between France and Germany, is one of the most historically and viticulturally fascinating regions in the world, and produces several famous and widely loved wines which are very much the combined essence of these two important Old World wine countries. Vintners in Alsace have had centuries to perfect their wines, made with the native grape varietals which thrive successfully in the cooler climate, and produce a range of wines which have long been considered amongst the finest in the world. Riesling, Pinot Noir, Gewurztraminer and Sauvignon Vert (formerly known as Tokay d'Alsace) varietal grapes are all commonly and widely grown in the region, with these particular varietals most highly prized by vintners due to their ability to express the excellence of the Alsatian terroir.

Such procedures are designed to increase the overall quality of the country's produce, and also to ensure that wines made in each particular region or appellation are of a character and type which is representative of the area. Thankfully for consumers of wine world-wide, the French have a particularly high reputation to uphold, and seem to do so flawlessly. Every year, wineries from all over France produce millions upon millions of bottles of fine wine, making the most of their native grape varieties and the excellent terrain which covers most of the country.
