Harmonious blend of several white grape varieties (Pinot, Riesling, Sylvaner, etc.).
Beautiful vivacity, very distinct first impression in the mouth. A lively and nervous wine which pleased by its freshness.
Light-bodied and palatable table wine, liked as an aperitif in Kir or even for cooking. To be served with quiches or summer salads.
3 – 4 years.
In 100 cl bottle
In the past, in the courtyards, when the winegrower filled his barrels, the overflow of juice was stored in a separate barrel. From that was born Alsace’s most famous blend.
The plot from which this wine is made is located on the ruins of the Meywhir castle (10th century), hence the name of this specific area: “Im Schloss”.
This wine comes from grapes full of sugar, harvested when over-ripe, 4 to 6 weeks after the vendanges (grape harvest), sometimes under the first snowfall.
Fruity nose with a nice raspberry note.
Remarkably fresh and light-bodied, with a subtle fruitiness, it is pleasant and thirst-quenching and shows a nice vivacity.
