Propelled to legendary status by Léonard Humbrecht, the founder in 1959, and his son Olivier, this Turckheim estate has pioneered biodynamics with scientific rigour since 1997. Spanning 40ha in all, it encompasses Alsace’s finest terroirs, including the volcanic Rangen de Thann, marly-limestone Hengst and granitic Brand. Since 2019, Olivier and Margaret’s son Pierre-Emile has overseen vinification. In the sweltering 2022 vintage, only old vines and marl-grown fruit were selected for the Grand Cru Brand, resulting in a wine of unparalleled depth and complexity. Thierry Meyer: Good intensity of floral and citrus aromas. Dry, full and complex. Pure, with fresh and ripe acidity. Long, salty finish. Vincenzo Arnese: Ripe peach and apricot aromas. Rounded and rich, the finish showing good structure and body. Elegant and balanced. Claire Thevenot MS: A ripe, lemony nose, good tension and depth. Palate weight and acidity are key here, and it leaves an almost tannic impression, with a long finish.
