Domaine Zind Humbrecht

The union of two great winegrowing families came about with the marriage of Léonard Humbrecht of Gueberschwihr, and Geneviève Zind of Wintzenheim, in 1959. The combined domains have grown into one of the most impressive estates in Alsace. The 40-hectare vineyard stretches across several diverse terroirs, like the Thann, Hunawihr, Gueberschwihr, Wintzenheim and Turckheim regions. The grounds are completely biodynamically farmed, every plot is even cultivated individually. With more than thirty wines produced of every vintage, they use only the most matured fruit to create full, concentrated and intense wines. Each wine is uniquely different from the next, but they all respectfully and effortlessly express their particular origin. Zind-Humbrecht is one of France’s leading white wine producers. They also include a sweetness scale on each of their labels with an Index of 1 to 5 (1 being dry), this makes it easier to choose the perfect bottle according to your tastes. There are four Grand Cru classified vineyards that are represented by their large production, the Brand, Hengst, Goldert and Rangen de Thann Clos St Urbain vineyards, which produce some of best Rieslings of the appellation.
