About the Winery:
Located on the "GRASBERG", at an altitude of 340m with a North-East exposure at the top of the Grand Cru "Altenberg de Bergheim" which rests on the poor limestone of the Grande Oolithe. The thinness of the soil leads the vine to plunge deep into the subsoil in search of energy giving a very complex and long wine, marked by the poor limestone of the Grande oolithe where the vine must deeply search for the ultimate energy of its reproduction.
Grasberg has tension, and this initial tightness indicates the complexity that will express itself in time. The nose A complex wine from Jurassic limtestone terroir. Very persistent, marked by its minerality.
