Kientzler

The Kientzler wine estate in Ribeauvillé is a true gem of the Alsace vineyard. Renowned for its expertise and commitment to quality, this family-run wine estate embodies the excellence of Alsace wines. With a rich history and winemaking tradition going back several generations, Domaine Kientzler stands out for the finesse and precision of its wines.

The unique terroir of Ribeauvillé, with its limestone and clay-limestone soils, gives Domaine Kientzler wines exceptional minerality and freshness. The plots, ideally located on sunny hillsides, benefit from a favorable microclimate that allows optimal ripening of the grapes.

The Kientzler wine estate is particularly renowned for its Grand Cru wines, including Alsace Grand Cru Osterberg and Grand Cru Geisberg. These emblematic cuvées, made from Alsace's noble grape varieties such as Riesling Grand Cru, Gewurztraminer and Pinot Gris, reveal unrivalled aromatic complexity and depth.

Philippe Mischler, sommelier at Mundovin, describes the wines of the Kientzler wine estate as "elegant and precise, with remarkable purity and expressiveness". Each wine is a faithful reflection of its terroir, offering intense aromas of ripe fruit, flowers and minerals, with a harmonious structure and long finish.

Winemaking at Domaine Kientzler is carried out with respect for tradition and with a minimum of intervention, enabling the wines to develop their full character and ageing potential. Ageing on fine lees provides a rich, silky texture, while natural acidity ensures exceptional freshness and vivacity.
