Description
What kind of wine it is
Alsace Complantation Sec by Marcel Deiss is an organic white wine with a firm and dry character. It is born from the synergy between Pinot Blanc, Riesling and Gewürztraminer, grown together to express the deepest essence of the terroir. On the nose, it offers a lively and fruity bouquet, where notes of lemon, white flowers, pineapple and yellow peach intertwine. On the palate, it reveals itself as energetic, combining the softness of a mature body with a refreshing crispness, enhanced by a clear salinity.
Where it comes from
Its origin takes us to Alsace, specifically to the Bergheim area. Here, the estate manages the vineyards with a strictly sustainable approach. The vines sink their roots into various clay-limestone terroirs, situated on hillsides that benefit from optimal sun exposure. This particular soil matrix gives the plants the energy needed to develop a well-defined savouriness. The surrounding natural environment imparts a distinct aromatic precision to the wine, faithfully reflecting the geological identity of the place.
How it is produced
Production is based on the ancient practice of complantation, a genuine field blend that involves cultivating different varieties in the same plot. The entire management follows the principles of organic farming, carefully respecting natural cycles. The winemaking process aims to balance the structure of the palate and preserve the integrity of the fruit. This meticulous care results in a vibrant and dynamic wine, characterised by a solid evolutionary potential that allows it to mature harmoniously over time.

Managed today by Jean-Michel DEISS, the domaine consists of 26 hectares (52 acres) of hillside vineyards spread over 9 communes and approximately 20 kilometers.
The extreme variation in conditions of production at the domaine have led Jean-Michel DEISS to seek to express in each wine the three factors that make a wine complete : the grape variety, the vintage and the terroir.
The greater the wine, the more the gustatory characteristics linked to the soil take the place of the typicity linked to grape variety or vintage.
When speaking of terroir, the following have to be taken into consideration : geology, pedology, climate and microclimate, technical exploitation of the character of the soil, microfauna and flor, and the traditional methods and techniques used to produce wines. Read more
