Gewurztraminer Origin White 2022,
Jean-Marc Dreyer's Gewurztraminer Origin is an organic (AB label), biodynamic, and natural dry white wine from Alsace, made with maceration (orange wine), with no added sulfites. Jean-Marc Dreyer's Origin range consists of single-varietal cuvées based on six Alsatian grape varieties (Sylvaner, Auxerrois, Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer, Riesling and Muscat), macerated on the skins with a touch of controlled oxidation, which gives a multidimensional nature to the Gewurztraminer grape variety, thus proving that it has never had its last word.
Vinification
The organically and biodynamically grown Gewurztraminer is harvested by hand and macerated for seven days in whole bunches. After pressing and fermentation, the wine is aged for ten to eleven months in the Alsatian style, in foudres and demi-muids, without topping up. Biodynamic method, fermentation by indigenous yeasts, unfiltered, unclarified, no sulfites added in the vineyard or in the cellar.
Tasting
Fragrant, powerful, sumptuous, disconcerting, addictive, structured in layers and of a surprising complexity, Gewurztraminer Origin is the gewurztraminer that you no longer expected, with an overpowering aromatic, without the sugar commonly associated with this grape variety. All the sugars have been eaten, what remains is an extraordinary richness of aromas, naked and unvarnished. Notes of mango, lychee, ylang-ylang, the bouquet of flowers and exotic fruits is there, sublimated by a dry and straight frame. This wine screams for foie gras, with or without truffle, but it can be drunk with everything from seafood to land.

Jean-Marc Dreyer, a biodynamic and natural Alsace winemaker (AB organic certification label), succeeds several generations of his family at the Dreyer & Fils estate, established in 1830 between Obernai and Molsheim. Upon taking over the estate, he immediately opted for biodynamics. In 2009, upon returning from a pilgrimage to Compostela, he decided to never again add sulfur to any wine. Having made this decision, he affirmed his style around skin maceration, accentuated and chiseled, bringing out the soul of the Alsatian grape varieties. Jean-Marc also works with direct pressing and often with single varietals. He also produces Pinot Noir reds of surprising depth.

Gentle oxidation is also a particular characteristic of his wines, generally vinified without topping up. Jean-Marc is best known for his “Origin” series, a finely macerated expression of Alsace grape varieties, but we invite you to discover his other wines.

Jean-Marc Dreyer
Pink Pong by Jean-Marc Dreyer is an Alsatian rosé wine with organic maceration (AB label), biodynamic, and natural, without added sulfites, made from a blend of three grape varieties in equal parts: Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, and Auxerrois.

The vinification of Pink Pong is modeled on this winemaker's Origin cuvées. In this blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, and Auxerrois grown biodynamically, the former gives it a bright red color.

Biodynamic method, fermentation with indigenous yeasts, unfiltered, unclarified, no sulfites added in the vineyard or cellar.

Sweet notes of cherry, a slight astringency of cranberry, rhubarb, wild strawberry, a herbaceous note, and a hint of white pepper. Jean-Marc Dreyer doesn't always blend grape varieties, but when he does, we take off our hats: through a fine and dense framework, beautiful notes of red fruits and spices emerge. A wine for a special occasion, a thirst-quenching wine too, Pink Pong has it all: dryness, acidity, freshness, structure... As for food and wine pairings, you are spoiled for choice, this wine with its strong character goes well with anything that is eaten: red meats, grilled meats, cured beef (cecina) and pata negra ham, Gascon black pork ham too, charcuterie... Serve it very cold.

Magnum Gauthier Blanc 2021
Jean-Marc Dreyer
Here's a rarity, a curiosity, a challenge, and a precious bottle. If you're already familiar with Jean-Marc Dreyer's Origin range, a series of maceration cuvées based on the six Alsatian white grape varieties—Sylvaner, Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Auxerrois, Pinot Gris, and Muscat—you'll find this one, in a way, the synthesis and summary of that range. For good reason: it's the result of blending the fin de cuvée of each Origin reference after bottling. But why Gauthier? It's the first name of a pilgrim on the road to Santiago de Compostela who spent some time with Jean-Marc Dreyer and took part in the work in the cellar. After noting that this blend of fine vintages was excellent to drink, he suggested that Jean-Marc bottle it and make it into a special vintage. "It tastes so good, it would be a shame not to!" It tastes incredibly good, in fact, notes the winemaker. So this vintage is naturally named in honor of Gauthier. Before bottling, Gauthier is kept for two to three months in barrels to marry the flavors and give unity to the wine. This unusual decision has produced a vintage in its own right, delicious, full of fullness and character, with a distinct touch of controlled oxidation. Gauthier is always packaged in magnums and, of course, contains no more sulfites or additives than the vintages from which it is composed. That is to say, zero.
