Zind Humbrecht was created in 1959 as a result of the merger of the wine producing operations of the Humbrecht family in Gueberschwihr and the Zind family in Wintzenheim. The Humbrechts are a very old wine-making family, who have been passing their skills from one generation to the next since the Thirty Years War (1620). The property has 40 hectares and is managed according to biodynamic principles. Zind Humbrecht has long been established as one of Alsace's most reputable producers. Léonard Humbrecht has placed quality over quantity, developing superb terroirs that have been neglected because they are too difficult to work, such as Rangen in Thann. Today, Olivier Humbrecht and his father are only interested in exceptional terroirs; their insistence on quality, combined with virtuoso technical ability, enable them to produce exceptionally dense, complex wines that are always respectful of the characteristics of the grape varieties and the terroir.

This Pinot Gris Jebsal comes from the 1.3 hectare vineyard revived by Léonard Humbrecht, where the steepness and small parcels make cultivation here difficult. However, the marly soil on this terroir is favourable to the production of velvety, almost syrupy wines. A beautiful yellow robe offers abundant ripe aromas of candied fruits, quince, fig and honey. The palate is well-rounded and unctuous, cut through with a biting acidity and refreshing minerality.
