Domaine Valentin Zusslin (Alsace)

 Presentation:

Founded in 1691 by M. CISLE, Domaine Valentin Zusslin  includes three generations of winegrowers who maintain the traditions of their ancestors. The vineyard is established South of Colmar : Orschwihr

organic estate recognized:BD/SAS (just for 2 wines)

This estate is farming biodynamic Demeter. The wine making is natural (with natural yeast, without chaptalization and just a little sulfur).

The result gives ample wine, long with much minerality. They try to winemake no added sulfur for some wines (like  Auxerrois 2010, Pinot Noir 2010 cuvée A. .,or crémant 2008). You will find as old vintage Riesling 2003  Pfiengtsberg.  This winegrower ‘s family progresses from year to year

Alsace Crémant without sulfur added  08 *** 12.5 € (95% chardonnay and auxerois)
His nose is discreet dried fruit and a little butter
The attack is full, the bubbles are fine with a medium of elegant structure
The Retro-olfaction is mineral and semi long
This powerful creamant is full of beautiful structure with lovely fine bubbles, complexity and minerality are present
This is a great success

Muscat Cuvée Marie 2009 ***
Color yellow, the aroma  nose is semi complex. The attack is smooth, the medium is rich, full and long. The finish is round. The return is very mineral, aromatic and spicy
This lovely aromatic wine is just a littlesweet, and complex . It has a beautiful fat stucture. The return complex is both salty and sweet spice. For me it ‘ is silky dry wine.Vitajuwel gives the fineness and opens many
