Description
What kind of wine it is
The Pinot Gris Cuvée Jérémy by Jean-Michel Welty is an organic white wine with a semi-sweet profile, fully expressing the character of the Pinot Gris grape. The bouquet opens with clear notes of candied and yellow-fleshed fruits, leading to a tasting experience with good structure. On the palate, it stands out for its enveloping roundness, enriched by hints of honey and dried fruit that lead to a dry finish. Thanks to this measured balance between softness and intensity, it is ideal paired with delicate lean fish dishes or to accompany selections of cheeses.
Where it comes from
This wine is born in the heart of Alsace, within a territory of unmistakable characteristics. The vines take root on the hills of Bollenberg, characterised by a dry heathland considered a rarity at European level. It is in this specific context that the Welty family has cultivated the land since 1738, carrying on an agricultural dedication spanning eight generations. The influence of a dry terroir is directly reflected in the glass, favouring ideal ripening of the grapes and giving the wine the defined structure typical of the great expressions of Alsace.
How it is produced
The winemaking philosophy is based on full respect for natural cycles, following the principles of organic and sustainable agriculture introduced to the estate in 2012. As an independent winemaker, Jean-Michel Welty oversees every stage of production with a meticulous approach. The Pinot Gris grapes are vinified to obtain a still white wine that enhances the purity of the fruit, preserving the varietal identity. Careful management in the cellar ensures a clear aromatic profile, ideal for bottle ageing from three to five years, guaranteeing a satisfying tasting experience that evolves over time.
History and Curiosities
The Pinot Gris Cuvée Jérémy originates from the Bollenberg, in Alsace, on an arid heathland like no other.

The label pays tribute to Jérémy, who in 2012 introduced organic farming, reaffirming the Domaine's identity as an independent winemaker capable of combining a centuries-old heritage with a deep respect for nature.

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
