Winemaker’s/Importer’s notes: The Binners have been farming in the village of Ammerschwihr since 1770, first in polyculture, and since WWII as full-on wine growers. Christian was lucky that his ancestors, although never officially certified, always worked the land in the organic spirit. “Even in the 1950s, when mechanization and fertilizers started to take over, my father quickly realized that he preferred to continue to work as he was used to, i.e. with a lot of handwork, manure and natural treatments for the vineyards. Thanks to this, we have this enormous luck of having vines as old as the 1930s, planted by my grandfather, that never saw chemicals in their life,” Christian retraces the family history. His father Joseph was similarly careful in the cellar, and, with the help of the legendary Beaujolais grower and natural wine trailblazer Marcel Lapierre, who became a family friend, they were already making wines without added sulfur in the 1990s.
A fruity, easy-drinking white blend with a pleasant acidity that brings a whole range of saveurs (flavors) to any day of the week! Aromatic yielding different floral and fruity smells. On the palate it’s light-bodied with a nice texture and a mix of peach, pear, green apple, honeyblossom and a touch of ripe white grapefruit. A blend that won’t disappoint.
Pair it with roasted chicken, seafood, creamy cheeses, or just on its own in good company.
Region: Alsace, France
Grape: Auxerrois, Sylvaner, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris and Chasselas, with a tiny bit of Riesling and Gewurztraminer.
