1. Domaine Marcel Deiss Alsace 1er cru Engelgarten
A great Alsatian white wine from the "Engelgarten" vineyard, the result of the cross-planting of five grape varieties. On the nose, it presents aromas of cooked orange peel and pears, underlined by fine mineral notes. On the palate, a touch of exoticism and the taste impression of warmth characteristic of gravel soils and soft notes of white fruits. The long finish reveals the typical mineral structure and a generous enamel. An opulent, very balanced and dense white wine.
2. Domaine Marcel Deiss Alsace Riesling
In the nose very lemony underlaid with fine mineral notes and traces of tangerine and pink grapefruit. Invigorating and refreshing on the palate, the wine presents aromas of orange peels and stone, leaving behind the salinity that is often typical of Riesling.
3. Domaine Marcel Deiss Alsace Riquewihr
The Riquewihr is a capricious cuvée of Riesling and Pinot Gris that is sometimes crisply fresh and light-footed and then again a little more serious and straightforward. Domaine Deiss is a "superstar" of the Alsace winegrowing region and is run biodynamically by Mathieu Deiss with the help of his father Jean-Michel. This white wine exudes a lush aroma of pear, peach, citrus fruits and honey. On the palate, it presents itself with a smooth, mineral acidity. With each sip, you will discover a subtle change in character that will inspire you until the very last sip.
4. Domaine Marcel Deiss Alsace Grand Cru Schlossberg
A great rarity from the Grand Cru single vineyard Schlossberg. The Domaine Deiss is a "superstar" of the Alsace winegrowing region and is run by Marcel's son, Jean-Michel Deiss, who farms the estate biodynamically. The Schlossberg is a complex Grand Cru of great elegance and depth. The undisputed "master" of the Schlossberg is the Riesling, which thrives on sandy granite soil and gives it an intense mineral characteristic. The wine has aromas of fresh herbs, citrus fruits and a touch of wet stone. On the palate you can feel its energy, special "vertical structure". A great wine with a lot of potential, depth, freshness, spiciness and saltiness. The somewhat medieval and sacral label was developed with an artist who has mastered ancient techniques and pigmentation. It presents the colours of the soil and the characterful structure and shape of the wine.
5. Domaine Marcel Deiss Alsace Schoffweg
Dry wine with complex structure. The fruity bouquet with fine vanilla notes makes you want more. Opulent, with a pleasant acidity and beautiful juiciness, it resonates in the mouth for a long time.
6. Domaine Marcel Deiss Le Jeu des Verts
An iron hand in a velvet glove! The domaine endeavours to express the marl of the Gruenspiel vineyard (one of the best vineyards in Bergheim). It does this in the form of an "orange wine", i.e. with maceration. In this way, the wine expresses its location and still guarantees a long storability. The wine has phenomenal length, a slightly tannic structure and impressive power. The flavours are yellow-fruity and exotic, accompanied by mint, lime and a cool, stony minerality. An excellent accompaniment to veal tartare and Riz Casimir.
7. Domaine Marcel Deiss Alsace 1er cru Burg
Semi-dry wine, powerful and elegant; reserved and charming, fruity and mineral, a wine like an oxymoron! In the village of Bergheim in Alsace is where the Deiss domaine lies. Jean-Michel Deiss inherited the Schoenenbourg vineyard, which was planted to several grape varieties instead of one. Using this to his advantage, he sought to vinify his wines as blends, going against the norm of the region at the time. Taking the blending style in his stride, every one of his top vineyards were then planted to this style of coplanting. The Deiss expression of terroir is unparalleled in the region when reinforced with the usage of biodynamic farming and natural winemaking. Mathieu has now joined his father. They are not only leaders in the region, but do not conform to trends.
8. Domaine Marcel Deiss Alsace Complantation
Complantation stands for the cultivation of different grape varieties in the same vineyard, whereby the different grapes are harvested at the same time. Deiss revives this historical Alsatian viticultural practice. The grapes express their Alsatian terroir better. Furthermore, the biodiversity of the different grape varieties protects them from diseases and reduces the need for spraying. Deiss is fully committed to respect for the environment and sustainability. Complantation is crisp and fruity on the nose with aromas of lemon, white flowers, pineapple and peach. In the mouth it is invigorating and extremely fresh and fruity with a slightly salty note. A very versatile food companion.
9. Domaine Marcel Deiss Alsace Grand cru Mambourg
Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Stephan Reinhardt writes about the vintage 2019: "The 2019 Grand Cru Mambourg offers a deep and pure bouquet with ripe stone fruit aromas intertwined with iodine and notes of crushed limestone and orange blossoms. Full-bodied, intense and bitter on the palate, this is a surprisingly matured Mambourg that shows bitters rather than complexity and rich texture. It is an impressive, pure, refined and salty wine with fine tannins, but I wonder if the best characteristics—the richness and ripeness—have not been sacrificed for the purity, but this might be a question of personal style. I personally would have expected more richness here." Powerful bouquet with aromas of yellow fruits such as pear, peach and quince. The wood is discreetly noticeable. On the palate opulent and juicy with a nice viscosity.
10. Domaine Marcel Deiss Berckem Gewürztraminer
In the bouquet very ripe, but fresh scents of candied oranges, Acacia honey and verbena. Opulent and sensual on the palate with a powerful-fruity and long-lasting finish.
