Taste

While most Alsace wines are made from a single variety, this wine is made from a blend of multiple grape varieties. It has a refreshing taste with plenty of minerality, a white flower aroma, and a moderate acidity that lingers.

The wine retains the characteristics of each grape while blending them together exquisitely, making it a pleasure to drink.

According to Meyer, he is proud that he uses noble varieties of manure that are rarely used in Edeltz.

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 farm is located in 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 wines are produced. It is believed that the reason why the Meyer family changed to organic is because the 12th generation, Eugène, was in a serious condition where his optic nerve was paralyzed due to pesticide poisoning. He was cured by homeopathy at that time, and encountered Steiner's biodynamic farming, and decided to change in 1969. The Meyer family's fields are full of lively energy because they continued to use biodynamic farming methods even after 1969. The Meyer family is known in France as a pioneer of biodynamic farming.
