Alsace, Domaine Pierre Henri Ginglinger, Riesling, Aoc Alsace Grand Cru Ollwiller, Blanc
Established in the old town of Eguisheim, south of Colmar, this family estate whose origins date back to 1610 is located in a house dating back to 1684. Mathieu Ginglinger, who succeeded his father Pierre-Henri in 2003, runs the estate organically (certified in 2004). After acquiring vineyards at the southern end of the Route des Vins, he now has 15 ha, with parcels in 3 grands crus.
Presentation

Exposed south-east, the Ollwiller Grand Cru also benefits from intense sunshine which the soils and grapes adore.
