taste

Transparent ruby ​​color.

The aroma of black fruits such as blackberries, blueberries, and black cherries is balanced with the aroma of red fruits such as raspberries and cherries.

It has a dry mouthfeel, but the mild acidity and very soft tannins give it an elegant taste. You can also feel the jammy nuances of black and red fruits, and you can enjoy the aroma of a moderate maturity.

The remaining rhymes are long and rich in flavour.

About the producers, the Meyer family

Domaine Eugene Meyer (Meyer family)

Organic history: Since 1969 (certified by Demeter in April 1980 and ECOCERT in 1991)

It is located in the village of Bergholz, which is in the southern part of the Alsace region. It is a historic wine farm that has been passed down from parent to child since 1620. Currently, the 13th generation, François, is in charge of everything from cultivation to brewing. The topography is that it is a basin surrounded by the Vosges Mountains and the Alps, and in addition to the large temperature difference between winter and summer, the annual rainfall is low, so high quality wine is considered to be the best. It is said that the reason why the Meyer family changed to organic is because the first generation, Eugène, was in a serious condition in which his optic nerve was paralyzed due to pesticide poisoning. After being cured by homeopathy at that time, he encountered Steiner's biodynamic farming and decided to change in 1969. By continuing to use this farming method, the Meyer family's fields are full of lively energy. The Meyer family is known in France as a pioneer of biodynamic farming.
