Pinot Blanc 2024

Wine description for Pinot Blanc 2024 from Domaine Zind-Humbrecht

Character

The Domaine Zind-Humbrecht once again demonstrates its mastery of the often underestimated Pinot Blanc grape variety. This 2024 embodies the classic Alsatian interpretation of Pinot Blanc - clearly structured, characterised by minerality and with a refreshing directness that is typical of the estate's biodynamically farmed vineyards.

With 12.5% Alcohol and practically dry style, the modern Alsatian school is evident here: elegance before power, precision before opulence. The low residual sweetness emphasises Olivier Humbrecht's purist approach, which always lets the terroir speak for itself.

Terroir and winemaking philosophy

Alsace, wedged between the Vosges and the Rhine, offers ideal conditions for Pinot Blanc. The continental character with warm, dry summers and the limestone-rich soils of the region give the variety its characteristic minerality and freshness.

Zind-Humbrecht, a pioneer of biodynamic viticulture for generations, lets the grapes speak with minimal intervention. The spontaneous fermentation and the renunciation of cosmetic interventions result in wines with an authentic personality - honest, unadorned, true to the terroir.

Food recommendations

A classic Alsatian companion with regional specialities such as choucroute or tarte flambée. The moderate alcohol strength and dry style make it the ideal partner for seafood, poultry in a light-coloured sauce or vegetarian dishes with herbs.

Particularly appealing to Goat cheese or as an aperitif - a wine that perfectly reflects the Alsatian way of life: uncomplicated, but never simple.
