About Domaine Gerard Neumeyer
The Neumeyer farm comprises 40 acres of vine parcels in and around the village of Molsheim, about 20 minutes west of Strasbourg in the northern part of Alsace (Bas-Rhin). Organically farmed since 2010. Harvest is executed with multiple passes over 4-5 weeks to capture optimum maturity, aiming for the right acidity in the white varieties and balance for the pinot noir. Over time, he has moved to lower residual sugar in white grape varieties. From the vineyard to the cellar, gentle handling of the delicate grapes is of paramount importance. In the cellar, every measure is taken to ensure that both the terroir and individual character of each variety are fully expressed. On the hills of Molsheim is the Grand Cru Bruderthal, where the Neumeyers are proud owners of 8.6 acres. This perfectly situated, southeast-facing vineyard is planted to all four of the appellation s noble varieties; Riesling, Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer, and Muscat. G rard tends all of his parcels meticulously by hand using only natural vine and soil treatments. Harvest is of course, also manual. From the vineyard to the cellar, gentle handling of the delicate white grapes is of paramount importance. In the cellar, G rard takes every measure to ensure that both the terroir and individual character of each variety are fully expressed. All of his white wines (he also makes a little Pinot Noir) are aged on their lees in large, older, oak foudres. G rard has resisted the bigger-is-better trend that is so prevalent in the southern part of the appellation.
