It is a perpetual requirement

Additionally, the estate carries out the visual selection of the most robust vineplants by multiplying the selected plants in the old vines. This method should be distinguished from clonal selection, which involves reproducing the best plants and which can reduce the diversity of the gene pool over the long term.
The plantation density is 5000 vines per hectare. We carefully manage the health of the vines, encouraging them to root deeply. With less wood, they produce better fruit.

The vineyard itself offers an excellent potential for quality. However, only the talent of the winegrower can bring about the emergence of a great wine. Our obsession with perfection means that we keep only the best. We have our own methods, which are more stringent than those used throughout Alsace in general.
Each year, we select those plots for which the vine trunks appear to fulfil the required conditions. We carry out cluster-thinning, eliminating a certain percentage of the grapes in order to improve the concentration of the others. We postpone the harvest dates with the sole aim of guaranteeing optimal ripeness. The vinification process is carried out with the same commitment to perfection and the same respect for tradition.
