Description
The Cave De Ribeauville co-operative has been managed and owned by growers for over 100 years. Their passion and entire raison d’être has always been about their land, their terroir, and the quality of fruit they grow on the Vosges Mountains.
The alternating razor-sharp ridges and plummeting valleys create slopes with fantastic exposure to the sun and great protection from the wind and rain which help maximise the potential of this vertiginous land. This particular range comes from a small selection of organic vineyards, which show poise through fresh, fruit-driven clean expressions of the classic Alsatian varieties clearly demonstrating that this venerable co-operative is living very much in the moment.
Winemaker Evelyne Dodelinger is very experienced in vinifying organic wines and regular tastings ensure that the vinification is adapted to the needs of the wine to ensure the best expression of the terroir.
Intense complex aromas of black cherries and vanilla. Great structure with fine velvety smooth tannins.
