Sommerberg is reputed one the greatest grand Cru vineyards of Alsace, documented as having pro-duced some of the region's finest wines since the year 1214. From old vines on the steepest part of the Grand Cru. The granite soils give the wine an intense lime flavour and a touch of honey. Bone dry, the balanced acids give complexity and length.
