The tasting at Domaine Rémy Gresser in Andlau with Rémy Gresser was our last stop in Alsace. Following the tasting we drove up to the north to visit estates in the Pfalz and Rheinhessen regions.
Andlau is halfway between Strasbourg and Colmar at the foot of the Sainte Odile mountain. The vineyard area is thinning out in this northern Alsatian wine region. However the prestigious slopes of the Sainte Odile hill produce first-class wines.
Domaine Rémy
Gresser
The Domaine Rémy Gresser can look back on a long history. As early as 1520, Thiébaut Gresser is mentioned in the Andlau annals as the winegrower and magistrate of Andlau, which proves the family's connection to viticulture. Since then, the domain has passed from father to son.
Rémy Gresser now cultivates 35 acres of vineyards with extremely complex geology. Rémy produces exciting wines of great purity and expression due to the soil from which they come.
His three Grands Crus, for example, are very different in style.
Wiebelsberg is the largest Grand Cru, and its sandstone gives very floral, lively Rieslings.
Moenchberg, on granite and fossil limestone, produces succulent wines.
And Kastelberg, a unique terroir on Steige schist, produces some of Alsace’s most exciting
wines, loaded with minerality.
His other crus are Brandhof (limestone), Duttenberg (clay-marne) and Kritt (gravelly soil).
Tradition and nature are very important to him, hence long ago he converted to biodynamic winemaking practices. Rémy creates his wines in a dry style. His wines are extremely terroir-expressive and elegant.Arriving
