ABOUT THE WINE

Les Vignes du Précheur is a dry Alsace white made from a co-ferment of five traditional varieties: 40% Riesling, 30% Auxerrois, 20% Pinot Gris, 5% Muscat and 5% Sylvaner. The grapes come from the Prediger vineyard below Grand Cru Kaefferkopf, where sandy and clay-rich gravel soils shape the wine’s character. Hand-harvested and gently pressed in whole clusters, the wine ferments with indigenous yeasts and ages for eight months in old foudres. The 2023 vintage opens with white flowers, peach and apricot, then fills the palate with a generous yet balanced texture, lively acidity and a persistent saline finish.

Serve chilled as an aperitif or alongside quiche, onion tart, seafood, fish terrine, grilled chicken, cheese soufflé and light appetizers.
