Vol- 75cl

“Earthiness and flinty reduction embody the nose of this wine. The palate conveys slenderness and a concentration that encompasses chiseled flavors of stone and orange edged with smoke, as well as ripe stonefruit tempered with tart apple. This wine is elegant, compact and wonderfully long on the dry, lemony finish.” 95 points, Anne Krebiehl MW. The Wine Enthusiast

Schoenenbourg is a relatively large Grand Cru vineyard (53 hectares) and has a very complicated terroir. The base is marl with gypsum stones called Keuper and Vosges sandstone plus fine layers of Muschelkalk (seashells), with a sub-soil rich in minerals. It faces due south at Riquewihr and south-east closer to Zellenberg. Riesling here is the ideal wine variety for great dry wines as well as superb Vendanges Tardives and Sélection de Grains Nobles. The dry Rieslings tend to be rather austere in their youth but later they can become superb.

Jean-Christophe Bott is heir to the family tradition dating back to 1795, when his ancestor, Jean-Martin Geyl tended his vines and made his wine. Jean-Christophe Bott has been responsible for Domaine Bott-Geyl since 1993 and he converted the vineyards to be organic in 2000 and then biodynamic in 2002. In the vineyards he concentrates on low yields and in the cellars he oversees the vinification in the most natural and minimalist manner. The whole art is to bring together tradition and modernity, to perpetuate the vignoble for posterity and to protect its ecology. Today the Domaine extends to 15 hectares of vines including 6 Grands Crus and 4 Lieux-dits. This search for the authentic does not follow fashion: Jean-Christophe Bott has drawn directly from the riches of viticulture in the past, from omnipresent nature and from his experiences at wine producers in France, Germany and the New World. It is his way of bringing together the history of the men and the women of the Bott family of Ribeauvillé and the Geyl family of Beblenheim, who trod the ground of the chai and of the vineyards over the generations. The Domaine consists of 80 parcelles spread out over 7 communes from Ribeauvillé to Kientzheim in the heart of the region named “the Pearls of Vignoble”.
