This Pinot Noir comes from the marl-and-loam “Altweg” terroir, adjacent to Zellberg. Hand-harvested, fermented whole-cluster in concrete eggs, and aged naturally without sulfites. The wine is light and airy, with a delicate and elegant texture, carried by a subtle natural effervescence. A fresh red, less heavy but with lovely aromatic tension.

Julien Meyer
In Alsace, Domaine Julien Meyer employs a biodynamic methodology, with particular attention paid to soil vitality and the natural balance of the grapes. Riesling, Sylvaner, and Gewurztraminer are vinified there with a focus on maximum transparency, often without added sulfur.
The vinification process favors limited interventions, allowing fermentations to express themselves freely. The wines may exhibit a slight fermentative texture, which is embraced as a stylistic component, while maintaining a vibrant profile and precise varietal expression. Aging is conducted over extended periods, imparting progressive depth without compromising the wines' profiles.
All the cuvées are distinguished by a pronounced and consistent personality, offering a direct and vibrant interpretation of the Alsatian terroirs. The domaine embraces a unique aesthetic, rooted in observation, patience, and respect for the natural rhythm of the wines.
