Information
About the producer

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.

About the wine

The Heimbourg terroir lies on a hill to the east of Turckeim. Here, the Pinot Gris vines grow on steep windy slopes with a south–southwest facing aspect and poor soil which is particularly well-suited to their cultivation. Sheltered from the morning sun, the fruit ripens slowly and retains its precious acidity. The golden robe of the wine is almost luminescent. Even young it has fabulous fruity, honeyed aromas with a purity on the palate. Intense, silky and opulent with a fine long finish, this cuvée is a lesson in complex flavour.
