1. Domaine Jean-Paul Schmitt
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 14 reviews
Jean-Paul Schmitt is producing biodynamic wines at Scherwiller in the Alsatian region called Bas-Rhin. He farms the family owned wine estate consisting of eight hectares, all in one piece, on the hillside called Rittersberg: " the mountain of the knights". The vineyard is exposed to south – southeast and benefits of a microclimate that is exceptionally hot and dry. Its geological structure consists mainly of granite sand with different thickness (many large rocks show on the surface) mixed with granite pebbles (up to 65% in some sections). This ground is relatively poor and demanding but yet fertile – the vine plants are forced to get the power to grow from a well developed and deep growing root system. The work of Jean-Paul Schmitt is based on understanding and respect for this exceptional environment. He is forcing himself to control the productivity (38 hl/ha in average), a policy of a reasonable fight against illness in the vineyard as well as a biological battle against the worms in the grapes. Since 2009 the production is entirely organic, certified by Ecocert France. From vintage 2015 on, the estate is officially certified by Demeter for biodynamic production.
2. Domaine Achillee

5.0 based on 19 reviews
Our entire vineyard has been in organic farming for about twenty years and in Biodynamics since 2003. In 2016 we built a bioclimatic winery where, since then, we vinify our own wines in complete independence. This winery is a passive building built of wood and straw. The whole Achillée team will be happy to meet you in the cellar where we make our passion bloom.
