Morillon Steinbach 15
Old vines, a sandy soil and the long aging in large wooden barrels, form this expressive Chardonnay which tastes like ripe pears, walnuts and brioche.
Our history starts in 1770, thus already involved in winemaking for 240 years. And we have always remained a family enterprise, because it is fundamental to our self-conception and our tradition: It gives us the freedom to create our wines just as we want them to be, apart from any fashion: pure, elegant, timeless.
Old vines, a sandy soil and the long aging in large wooden barrels, form this expressive Chardonnay which tastes like ripe pears, walnuts and brioche.
Our most important assets are the soils from which our wine draws its vigor. On six challenging single-vineyard sites, mostly very old and deeply rooted vines thrive, each of which has its own pedigree well known to us. Our wine is exclusively produced from fruit that is sourced from our own vineyards.
Our credo is timelessness. We consider winemaking to be an annual metamorphosis: The grapevines grow up from earth, stones, minerals. Vines and grapes flourish under the sun, wind and rain. From these, our wines are finally crafted by hand.
