The Deiss family have been growers in Alsace for nearly 300 years and winemakers since 1947. They are one of the most forward thinking in Alsace. Mathieu Deiss is in charge today, assisted by his father, Jean Michel, one of the earliest advocates of biodynamics in Alsace. They consider all their wines to be an expression of the vineyard above all else. Indeed, many of their wines are 'field blends' – a mix of whatever grapes grow in a single vineyard. Under the direction of Jean Michel and now Mathieu, the estate’s reputation has grown significantly and all vineyards are farmed organically and biodynamically. This Gewürztraminer comes exclusively from Bergheim's clay limestone vineyards, and the granite slopes in Saint Hippolyte.
