Josmeyer

Domaine Josmeyer has 28 hectares of vines across a number of very fine parcels, including highly reputed Grands Crus such as Grand Cru Brand and Grand Cru Hengst. In total, the Josmeyer vineyard is distributed among approximately 28% Riesling, 24% Pinot Blanc, 21% Pinot Gris, and 19% Gewurztraminer, with the remaining 8% in Sylvaner, Muscat, and Pinot Noir. The vineyard has always been managed in a reasoned manner with respect for nature, and since 2004, all Josmeyer wines have been certified with the AB label (organic agriculture), as well as biodynamic. The 5th generation, represented by Céline and Isabelle Meyer, has succeeded their father, Jean Meyer, since 2016. Domaine Josmeyer wines are renowned for their finesse, and wine fermentation takes place largely in century-old wooden foudres, with capacities ranging from 1,000 to 6,000 liters. The wines are aged on fine lees, and their stabilization occurs naturally during the winter season. After bottling, the wines are sometimes stored for several years, so that enthusiasts can enjoy them in their youth or after several years of cellaring. The Riesling Grand Cru Brand from Josmeyer comes from a very small parcel at Josmeyer, with vines over 40 years old. The granitic terroir of Grand Cru Brand brings great finesse and precision to the Riesling, which is truly one of those great grape varieties capable of translating with great precision the subtle nuances of great terroirs. The Riesling Grand Cru Brand is a white Alsace wine of great purity and complexity. Still young on the 2017 vintage, it is carried by a sharp acidity, however tempered by low residual sugar. You will appreciate this pure expression of terroir, without aging notes. Of great tension and great minerality with impressive persistence, this very harmonious Brand will continue to develop for at least 5 to 7 years. Also in Grand Cru, the Riesling Hengst Somain 2014 is spicy and restrained, accompanied by noble and fine bitters that bring relief and good vivacity. This Grand Cru Hengst impresses with its tension, elegance, and aromatic purity, making it a true table companion for the finest sea fish: sea bass, turbot, monkfish, or even shellfish such as lobster or spiny lobster. The style of Domaine Josmeyer wines emphasizes elegance and will seduce the greatest Alsace wine enthusiasts.
