Pépin Blanc is a blend of Riesling, Sylvaner, Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris. Lively, freshly squeezed lemon, green apple and almond touches. Slightly hazy, the palate is round and super fresh. Very well-made, delicious Alsace white.
ACHILLÉE / PÉPIN, Pierre Dietrich,
Biodynamic, Natural
The story begins in 1990, when Yves Dietrich takes over 4 hectares from the family estate. He convert them to organic in 1999, then in Biodynamic in 2003.
In 2016, Pierre and Jean, sons of Yves arrive at the winery and move towards low intervention / natural winemaking.
They built a new winery, which iwas the largest self-supporting straw building in Europe. They purchase more vineyards and turn them into biodynamic, today they farm 25-ha.
Pépin is a project started by Pierre and Jean Dietrich, the idea is to produce natural wines, with zero additives at very affordable prices, using grapes from Achillée vineyards, and grapes purchased from local organic winegrowers.
