In Alsace, Pinot gris was once called Tokay. A famous legend claims that around 1565 vine plants were brought back from the town of Tokay in Hungary by the Baron Lazare de Schwendi. But according to some theories, it is likely that the grape variety brought back by Lazarus of Schwendi did not correspond to the famous Hungarian wine. Called Grauer Tokayer before 1870, Pinot gris was then successively named Tokay gris, Tokay d’Alsace, Tokay Pinot gris and finally, since April 1st 2007 Pinot gris.
Delicate and elegant sparkling wine with a fine and persistent foam.
The hillside of the GRAND CRU SCHLOSSBERG is an excellent terroir for this wine of character with mineral notes.
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.
