The vine
Sheltered by the highest peaks of the Vosges mountains, this terroir receives an exceptional amount of sunshine. The mainly limestone subsoil ensures good drainage. The exposure of the hillsides goes from east to south-east.
Age moyen des vignes : 40 years
A very nice festive salad, fresh, with crunchy flavours, which will be perfectly supported by the Riesling. This is a nice plate that you can serve during a holiday meal but also throughout the year, including for a romantic meal!
