The Kientzler family has cultivated a magnificent vineyard in Ribeauvillé for five generations. Thierry and Eric Kientzler continue the work of their father on nearly 14 ha. The line of conduct has not changed, the wines are dry, racy, and sometimes marked by the typical austerity of the Ribeauvillé area; one should not be impatient with these whites, which age well.

Depending on the desired balance, the wine can either be drunk young to retain all its fruity qualities, or a little more mature (5 to 10 years) to gain complexity, finesse and minerality.
