ゲヴュルツトラミネール グラン・クリュ ヴィンツェンベルク
Gewurztraminer Grand Cru Winzenberg
WhiteGewurztraminer
Gewurztraminer from the granitic Grand Cru Winzenberg, bright golden yellow with a complex, expressive nose of spice, faded rose petal, and candied apricot. The attack is soft, revealing the power of aromatics and spice, with a long finish where the granite terroir shows through in a nice spiced, mineral balance. The 2021 vintage earned two stars (remarkable) from the Guide Hachette des Vins.
クレヴネール（ピノ・ブラン） レゼルヴ・ド・ラ・ディーム
Klevner - Pinot Blanc Réserve de la Dîme
WhitePinot Blanc · Pinot Auxerrois
In Alsace, Pinot Blanc blended with Auxerrois is traditionally labeled Klevner. This bottling shows an elegant nose of roasted hazelnut with a discreet floral background, and a supple, suave palate — an easy-drinking yet refined take on the variety.
ミュスカ コンチェルト・プール・ヴァランタン
Muscat Concerto pour Valentin
WhiteSweetMuscat
A rare, limited-production Vendanges Tardives-style Muscat, first made in 2005 to mark the birth of Valentin, the first grandson of the Hubert Metz family, and produced only in years when weather conditions allow overripeness on the vine. Harvested using the same late-harvest principle as a Vendanges Tardives, it is intensely aromatic, combining sweetness and richness with the characteristic gourmand grapey character of Muscat.
ピノ・ノワール レゼルヴ・ド・ラ・ディーム
Pinot Noir Réserve de la Dîme
RedPinot Noir
A red Pinot Noir from vines around 45 years old, vinified with a three-week maceration including remontage and pigeage, then aged twelve months in barrel. The wine shows aromas of red fruit and cocoa, with emerging complexity, finesse, and a silky texture — a wine that continues to gain expression with time.
リースリング グラン・クリュ ヴィンツェンベルク
Riesling Grand Cru Winzenberg
WhiteRiesling
A single-vineyard Riesling from the granitic Grand Cru Winzenberg, the estate's flagship holding on the hillside above Blienschwiller. Elegant and refined, it expresses the mineral, energetic character of granite soil with a fine, complex nose of citrus and orchard fruit, an opulent yet fresh and mineral palate, good tension and long persistence. Vintages have consistently scored in the 93-94/100 range from critics.
リースリング レゼルヴ・ド・ラ・ディーム
Riesling Réserve de la Dîme
WhiteRiesling
The estate's classic, organically farmed Riesling bottling. Pale yellow with silver reflections, the nose is intensely citrusy with ripe lemon and a fruity touch, very expressive and refined. The palate mirrors the nose with a beautiful freshness.
