Riesling Vieilles Vignes
The master of Alsace wines. The crispest and the most pointed of grape varieties. It personifies a fruity and floral flavour with a touch of mineral aroma.
When young, it presents a dominantly fruity flavour and then develops a mineral touch (gun flint) and aromas of cooked fruit. Riesling has excellent ageing potential.
The ideal wine to accompany fish, prepared in any way. Also well-suited to shell fish, sea food and lobster.

Pinot Gris Vieilles Vignes
This wine has very complex aromas with touches of candied fruit, a somewhat unctuous and smoked flavour, with almost a touch of woodland and a slight floral touch in its first years. A full-bodied, fat, round, suave wine with a long finish.
This wine has good ageing potential and gains concentration and bouquet.
It can be served throughout a whole meal.
It goes remarkably well with foie gras, terrines and pasta, as well as mushrooms, white meat, pheasant and veal.

Gewurztraminer Vieilles Vignes
An enchanting wine, the best known of Alsace wines. It offers a true outburst of aromas, along with density and incomparable complexity. It has floral touches, especially rose, fruity aromas (quince, grapefruit, lychee) and spicy aromas (cinnamon).
This fragrant wine has good ageing potential.
Can be served as an aperitif or to accompany foie gras, cheese (blue cheese, Munster) and desserts which are not too sweet.
