Domaine Josmeyer 1854 FOUNDATION Prestige Selections Pinot Gris Alsace
Description: The renowned house of Josmeyer was founded in 1854 in Wintzenheim and has been in unbroken family ownership for 5 generations. Grapes are sourced from there own 23 hectares of vineyards, which include some four hectares of the renowned Grands Crus Hengst and Brand. In addition Josmeyer have long term contracts for grapes from a further 12 hectares which are worked to the strict Josmeyer principles. The vines are pruned hard and yields are kept well below the average for Alsace. There is a minimal chemical treatment and grass is grown between the rows to restrict yields and encourage the roots deeper into the subsoil. The vineyards are currently being run under the Lutte Raisonnee scheme but the family have experimented siuccessfully with Biodynamie and are moving resolutely towards conversion of all their sources of grape supply to a fully biodynamic regime. All grapes are handpicked and then whole-bunch pressed prior to fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Only natural yeasts are employed and both chaptalization and malolactic fermentation are avoided so as to ensure that the natural balance of each wine is preserved and the vintage and vineyard differences are emphasised (12 x 75 cl)
