Julien Meyer
Gewurztraminer Les Pucelles 2023
Vin de France | White | 2023
The "Les Pucelles" cuvée is crafted according to Patrick Meyer's biodynamic principles. Extended skin maceration on 50-60 year old Gewurztraminer vines, natural fermentation without added sulfur, light clarification, and diatomaceous earth filtration. Intense orange color, dense aromatics, and a fresh, saline character. A profoundly expressive, fluid, and balanced wine.

Julien Meyer
In Alsace, Domaine Julien Meyer practices biodynamic viticulture, paying particular attention to soil health and the natural balance of the grapes. Riesling, Sylvaner, and Gewurztraminer are vinified there with a focus on maximum transparency, often without the addition of sulfur.
Winemaking prioritizes minimal intervention, allowing fermentation to unfold naturally. The wines may exhibit a subtle fermentative character, embraced as a stylistic element, while maintaining a vibrant structure and precise expression of the grape varieties. Aging is carried out over extended periods, imparting progressive depth without weighing down the wines.
All the wines are distinguished by a strong and consistent personality, offering a direct and vibrant expression of the Alsatian terroirs. The estate embraces a unique aesthetic, based on observation, patience, and respect for the natural rhythm of the wines.
