Alsace, Domaine Pierre Henri Ginglinger, Sylvaner, Aoc Alsace, 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
This wine comes from a single parcel of Sylvaner located in Eguisheim on the “Sundgass” plot. Hand-harvested at peak ripeness, it is pressed from whole grapes. It ferments in the cellar for several months to develop its full richness. It is then aged on fine lees until bottling.
Winemaking
The entire production is harvested by hand to preserve the authenticity, conviviality and above all the quality of the harvest. The pressings are carried out in whole harvests, then the musts are transferred to the tuns for the alcoholic fermentation with a control of the temperature (15-20°C).
