WINE MAKING PROCESS
Le P'Tit Blanc is crafted using natural winemaking techniques. The grapes, sourced from vineyards at the foot of Mont Sainte-Odile, are hand-harvested. The winemaking process involves a direct press and spontaneous fermentation, utilizing native yeasts. The wine is aged for around 15 months, with components potentially resting in old oak casks or neutral vessels. Crucially, the wine is bottled unfined and unfiltered, with no added sulfites, adhering to the producer's philosophy of letting the grapes speak for themselves. The '22/23' vintage is a blend of grapes from both the 2022 and 2023 harvests.
