Producer
The Muré family have been making wine in the southerly Rouffach region since the end of the Thirty Years War in 1648; René is the eleventh generation in charge, and farms both the original holdings and the Clos St Landelin, a thirteen-hectare plot within the Grand Cru Vorbourg bought by his grandfather in 1935.
Vineyard
Sheltered by the highest peaks of the Vosges mountains, the vineyards in the Rouffach region receive an exceptional amount of sunshine. Clay and limestone soil ensures good drainage. The average age of these Gewurztraminer vines is thirty-five years, and they are farmed organically.
Winery
A slow fermentation was followed by maturation on fine lees.
