Description
What type of wine it is
Jean-Michel Welty's Riesling Les Terrasses is a still and dry organic white wine that faithfully reflects the character of the Alsace appellation. Produced exclusively from Riesling grapes, this wine stands out for its fresh and lively profile, characterised by prominent citrus notes and a natural acidic tension. The firm structure and marked savouriness delineate a full and balanced mouthful, capable of delivering extreme precision to the palate. Careful cellar processing ensures a vital and linear imprint that perfectly introduces the characteristics of its territory of origin.
Where it comes from
This wine originates in France, within the renowned Alsace region, and draws its essence from the Bollenberg terroir. This area is characterised by an arid moorland, considered a completely unique ecosystem in Europe, which profoundly influences the ripening and aromatic expression of the clusters. The wine estate is managed by a family of independent winegrowers who have cultivated vines since 1738, passing down a deep respect for the land for eight generations. The peculiar climatic and territorial conditions of this environment give this Riesling a pronounced acidic tension and clear aromatic purity.
How it is produced
The entire production process strictly follows organic farming practices, reflecting a deep-rooted focus on sustainable practices and the territory. Vinification is carefully studied to preserve the primary integrity of the grapes and the natural freshness of the fruit, working with precision to maintain a well-defined and vital savoury imprint. Meticulous cellar work guarantees excellent stability and structure, giving the wine a remarkable ageing potential estimated at between three and five years. This careful processing gives life to an elegant sip, ideal for accompanying fish dishes, poultry, and cheese selections.

Eight generations later, we are continuing this wonderful family story, which links us so closely to the land, the vines and the wine, with the same faith and the same enthusiasm.
Every day, our work is guided by the conviction that nature will give us back what we have given her.
It's been over thirty-five years since Jean-Michel took up the torch left by his father Fernand, gradually doubling the surface area of the vineyard.
In September 2012, he was joined by his son Jérémy, who brought a breath of fresh air to the estate with new creations and a new method of cultivation: Organic Farming. Read more
