Maison Pierre Sparr
メゾン・ピエール・スパー
A 340-year-old Alsace house celebrated for its benchmark Crémant d'Alsace.
The Sparr winemaking family's roots trace back to 1680 in Sigolsheim, Alsace. Pierre Sparr's great-grandfather took over the estate in the early 1900s and was a pioneer of estate bottling in the region; after the vineyards were destroyed in WWII, he rebuilt what became one of Alsace's most respected domaines. Today Maison Pierre Sparr Successeurs is based in Sigolsheim and Beblenheim, farming 15 hectares of its own vines organically for over a decade and sourcing fruit parcel by parcel from around 150 hectares of grower-partner vineyards, most HVE3-certified. The house is best known for its Crémant d'Alsace, alongside classic varietal wines from Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, and Pinot Noir. Its guiding motto, "excellence without compromise," reflects a philosophy that fine wine quality begins in the vineyard and the soil.
