Alsace, France's most easterly and one of it's most northernly wine regions, shares a rich history and lots in common with its German neighbours. Also known for their iconic fluted bottles and exceptional quality, bone dry, aromatic whites, the four Alsace noble varieties dominate; Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris (with Pinot Noir and Crémant on the up). The region is a concentrated 15,500ha narrow strip of vineyards at an altitude of 150–450 m and benefits from a semi-continental climate, being mostly sunny, hot and dry. With the Vosges mountains to the west and the Rhine river to the east the region gets all the sun and rain it needs for the slow ripening of its grapes.

Moritz-Prado is one of the most exciting newcomers to the Alsace wine scene. Founded by Ghislain Moritz and Angela Prado, their story is one of passion, experience, and a relentless pursuit of quality. Ghislain honed his craft in Mercurey before expanding his expertise in Portugal and Romania, where he played a key role in shaping the now-renowned Avincis winery. In 2009, he met Angela, a Colombian studying in Paris, and together they returned to Romania to help Avincis flourish. With years of experience and a shared dream of creating their own wines, the couple set their sights on Alsace. In 2018, they returned to France with their young family and acquired 5 hectares of vines in Albé—the region’s only mountain vineyard. At 450m altitude, the vines thrive on schist soils, producing Silvaner, Riesling, Pinot Gris, and Pinot Noir, all of which became certified organic in 2022. Their winemaking philosophy is rooted in minimal intervention, with an increasing number of cuvées crafted without added sulphur. Thoughtful use of French oak and skin contact results in expressive, terroir-driven wines that capture the distinct character of Alsace.

 

Tasting note: Dark; concentrated; red cherry nose with fresh cranberries. Great energy and power; with firm raspberries; cherry cola notes and a tangy; high acidity mousse. Dry; but with plenty of red fruits and berries and even some peach. Textured fizz and a long lively finish.
Winemaking Detail: Grapes carefully sorted. Whole-bunch press to extract a high quality free run juice. Temperature-controlled fermentation with indigenous yeasts in SST; followed by 12 months on the lees.
