Alsace has a history that dates back over a thousand years. The Romans first introduced grape growing to the region, and by the Middle Ages, Alsace was known for its high-quality wines.

Today, Alsace is one of the most prestigious wine regions in France and is known for producing some of the finest white wines in the world.

Lionel Reyser has taken on management of Domaine Hubert Reyser from his father Hubert. Born and raised on the vineyard, he has hardly spent a single day away from the fields. His passion for viticulture stems from his grandmother, who bought her first vineyard with her savings at the age of 14 and planted Gewürztraminer – a grape variety as generous and expressive as herself.

Gewurztraminer (which literally means “spicy Traminer”) is the pink-colored mutation of the Savagnin Blanc variety. It has good potential for accumulating sugar and often makes high quality dry wines with moderate acidity which are strong, rich and relatively smooth.

Gewurztraminer's are generally marked by full-bodied mouthfeel and deeply flavoured long finish.
