ProducerNote

Established in Riquewihr in 1574, the Dopff family has dedicated itself to producing

fine Alsatian wine for over 13 generations. A pioneering family, they were responsible

for the stemmed wine bottles, which today still distinguish Alsace wines from other

regions. In 1900, tenth generation Julien Dopff was so impressed by the Champagne

tastings held in Paris, he learnt the art of winemaking in Champagne for two years

before returning to Alsace. After WWII Julien Dopff strongly believed that a Crémant

made from local grape varieties which reflected the terroir of Alsace should be

protected. In 1976, together with five other producers, Dopff finally obtained official

recognition for Crémant d'Alsace as an AOC. Their 70 hectares of vineyard are

situated at 300 metres elevation, nestled in the foothills of the Vosges Mountains.

Vineyard

The vines are Guyot pruned and undergo a green harvest and meticulous canopy

management to ensure good light penetration and air flow, resulting in healthy,

concentrated berries. The soils in the vineyard are predominantly granitic.

Winemaking

The grapes were hand-harvested at optimum maturity, carefully selected and whole

bunch pressed. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks at controlled

temperatures and lasted for 12 days. The wine was aged in stainless steel vats

maintaining the purity of fruit, the varietal characteristics of Pinot Noir and the

nuances of the Alsace terroir.
