Mister Pink, a cremant rosé entirely based on Pinot Noir. This beautiful sparkling wine is made from an excellent grape that after aging for 10 months in large and neutral woods, is bottled and refined for 18 months on its yeasts. The degorgement took place in October 2020 adding 10 mg/lt of sulfur, but no dosage.
Fat, of beautiful substance, with a fine bubble, very refreshing, it proves perfect as an aperitif, with oysters or sea urchins. But also on a white meat dish, garnished perhaps with a spinach terrine.
Rieffel
Converted to the organic regime starting from 2009/2012 and now firmly anchored to the dictates of biodynamic Lucas Rieffel over the years has taken on many risks, preferring to renew his vineyards with mass selections of the best and oldest shoots rather than commissioning them to a nurseryman as more usual .... And this in the firm belief that the only way is to "obtain pure and highly concentrated wines capable of reflecting the multiple facets of Barr 's terroir". Plant density between 6500 and 8500 vines per hectare. A mix of clays, marl, granite and limestone combined with a saline trace borrowed from the ancient seas are the geological substratum of that minimalist approach in the vineyard and in the cellar aimed at a result in the expressive and identity chalice never demonstrating and striking drinkability . In Lucas wines, all obtained from spontaneous fermentations and with no sulphitation during the vinification phase, there is no trace of "that traditional and old Alsace" which too often has bent the peculiarities of the terroir to instances of marked aromaticity, fruity intensity or even sugary residues with a vaguely infantile conception.
