Marcel Deiss Grand Cru Mambourg

Domaine Marcel Deiss

A nose dominated by sweet spices, with a frank and mineral start. It tastes almost dry but will age harmoniously in the bottle thanks to a fat and smooth touch.
A very powerful wine with a superlative freshness on the finish.
A great table wine, tight and sovereign!

Domaine Marcel Deiss

Mambourg Grand cru 2017

Alsace Grand Cru Mambourg AOC

France - Alsace

 

    

Dominating Sigolsheim, the Mambourg is the earliest hillside in the vineyard. Stretching over nearly 1.3 km and covering 61.85 ha, facing south on the hillside, the Mambourg dominates Sigolsheim. As early as 783, history reveals that the wines of Sigoltesberg (the present-day Mambourg) were renowned for their elegance, harmony and capacity for long ageing. Numerous convents and lords were owners and gave it its letters of nobility.
Its particular geology, derived from the Oligocene limestone of the Quaternary period, gives Mambourg a very rare characteristic, an ever-present tannic power and a suave roundness of form. The wines, always perfectly dry, are of course sometimes overly powerful and extremely complex.
