✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Domaine Dirler-Cad s Pinot Gris R serve is a masterful expression of Alsace's complex terroir, crafted with strict adherence to biodynamic principles. Historically, Pinot Gris in Alsace was wrapped in the legend of 'Tokay d'Alsace,' supposedly brought back from Hungary by Baron Lazare de Schwendi after his campaigns in the 16th century. While modern ampelography revealed the grape actually originated in Burgundy, the noble character of the variety remains undisputed. Sourced from the estate's biodynamically farmed plots in Bergholtz, which feature a mosaic of clay, limestone, and sandstone soils, this wine is fermented using indigenous yeasts and aged on its fine lees. Unlike the heavy, overly sweet Pinot Gris styles of the past, Dirler-Cad focuses on tension, purity, and a dry, textured palate that highlights the grape's natural smoky, stone-fruit, and mineral nuances.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Domaine Dirler-Cadé blev grundlagt i 1871 i den sydalsaciske landsby Bergholtz og forener to historiske vinfamilier, som fandt sammen i 2000 ved ægteskabet mellem Jean Dirler og Ludivine Cadé. Vingården er en sand pioner inden for biodynamisk vinavl i Alsace og omlagde allerede sine marker til biodynamik i 1998 for at fremme den naturlige biodiversitet og bevare jordbundens vitalitet. Familiens fremragende parceller tæller historiske Grand Cru-marker som Kessler, Kitterlé, Saering og Spiegel samt markante lieux-dits som Belzbrunnen og Schimberg. Dirler-Cadé nyder stor international anerkendelse for sine knastørre, terroirprægede Riesling-vine, ranke Pinot Gris, aromatiske Gewurztraminer og fint strukturerede Crémant d'Alsace-mousserende vine.
