The Grand Cru Praelatenberg
Présentation
From the heights of Haut-Koenigsbourg, the viewpoints offer a sweeping vista of the steep slopes of Praelatenberg, a terroir where vines seem to have been conversing with stone for centuries. Here, nature has created a rare balance: a generous microclimate, gneiss soils steeped in history, and light that slips between the hillsides to give the grapes perfect ripeness.
This unique terroir gives the wines a crystalline, deep and elegant minerality that is perceptible regardless of the grape variety. Riesling reveals a striking, almost vibrant purity. Gewurztraminer is enriched with subtle spicy accents, while Pinot Gris displays an airy freshness, as if carried by the mountain winds.
Ranked among the 51 Grands Crus of Alsace, Praelatenberg seduces with its harmonious and consistent character, almost timeless. A wine of altitude and character, it tells the story of the encounter between the strength of the rock and the gentleness of the Alsatian sun — a rare alchemy, to be discovered like a secret whispered by the mountain.
