Description

Domaine Weinbach is a family-owned winery located in the heart of Alsace, France. The estate has a rich history dating back to the 17th century when it was founded by Capuchin monks. Today, the winery is run by the Faller family, who have been producing exceptional wines for generations.

Their Riesling is a standout wine, known for its elegance and complexity. The grapes are grown on steep slopes with a mix of granite and limestone soils, which impart a unique minerality to the wine. The Cuvée Theo is a special bottling named after the founder of the estate, Theo Faller. It is made from a selection of the best grapes from the estate's oldest vines and is aged in oak barrels for added complexity.

The style of production at Domaine Weinbach is focused on minimal intervention, allowing the terroir to shine through in each wine. The grapes are hand-harvested and sorted, and the winery uses natural yeasts for fermentation. The wines are aged in a combination of stainless steel tanks and oak barrels, depending on the style of wine.

In addition to their Riesling, Domaine Weinbach produces a range of other wines, including Gewürztraminer, Pinot Gris, and Muscat. Each wine is a reflection of the unique terroir of Alsace and the skill of the winemakers at Domaine Weinbach.

Overall, Domaine Weinbach is a producer that is highly regarded in the wine world for their exceptional wines and commitment to quality. Their Riesling Cuvée Theo is a standout wine that showcases the best of what Alsace has to offer.

Tasting notes

Cathy Faller oversees winemaking at this famously female-led house in Alsace, Cathy, her sister, and mother having taken over when their father Théo died in 1979. Farming organically, they use only estate fruit from vineyards that include top Grand Crus.

This is a discreet and yet powerful wine, the nose showing yellow plum and a little confit lemon, even a touch of butteriness before the palate opens just enough to show an expansive sweet fruit profile (with a little residual sugar). It has a limpid texture and a finish where the acid gently insists rather than dominating.
