Domaine Meyer-Fonne Pinot Blanc VV 2022
Meyer Fonné Vieilles Vignes Pinot Blanc is a remarkable wine that balances richness with freshness. The old vines impart concentrated yellow fruit flavours, complemented by smoky notes, fresh green fruit, citrus, and floral hints. It’s a nuanced and enjoyable wine.
Founded in the late 1800s by Felix Meyer and now managed by his great-grandson, also named Felix, Domaine Meyer Fonné spans 18 hectares across seven communes in Alsace. The diverse soils and vineyard exposures create a unique terroir, attracting both students and geologists. The domaine practices organic farming with some biodynamic techniques, using large, older foudres and stainless steel vats to enhance the wines' delicacy, depth, and complexity, especially in their Grand Cru selections. While Alsace is renowned for its white wines, Felix also crafts exceptional Pinot Noir, notably the 'Gallus,' and his Crémant is highly recommended.
