The Durrmann family make wine from their old family house in the middle of Andlau, a beautiful village nestled on the first slopes of the Vosges mountains south-west of Strasbourg. The family are true eco warriors only having electric cars and using solar energy for hot water and heating. Father André was among the first wave of organic winemakers in Alsace, converting in 1998, and son Yann has then taken this a step further applying a natural, minimal intervention approach in the cellar.
From parcels on sandstone, fruit was macerated for just two days and pressed slowly to stainless steel for fermentation. Bottled with no additions.
Tangy with fresh raspberry and fraise de bois, a little summer rhubarb compote in the mix, lovely balance and length, nice to see a 100% Pinot Gris Rose from Yann this year.
