The story begins in 1747 with their ancestor, who decided to invest in a piece of land to work the vine. With great fascination and curiosity, he cultivated the vine to harvest its fruit, the grape. This passion has been passed on from generation to generation until today. Seven generations later, the Domaine works 13 hectares of vines, spread over 5 communes and a hundred or so plots. Today, Michel Fonné has been at the head of the estate since 1989. He himself took over from his uncle René Barth, a winegrower, by adding the land of his parents, winegrowers.
Tasting notes
Pale yellow lemon colour with green reflections. The wine is bright and limpid, the aromatic expression is expressive with floral and fruity notes. On aeration, white flowers of nettle, lemongrass, honeysuckle and fennel seed are revealed. On the palate, a wine with balance and minerality. An expressive and very pleasant Riesling with a nice balance.
Food pairing
Perfect with pike dumplings with cream and rice pilaf or shellfish nage with Thai-style shellfish ravioli.
