This phenomenal Alsace estate, tracing its history back to the 17th Century, produces a stunning and diverse lineup of wines from enviable parcels in the Haut-Rhin district of Alsace. Located in the village of Kientzheim, Domaine Paul Blanck produces wines that are generous, balanced, terroir-expressive, and versatile. Winemaker Philippe Blanck farms his vines without the use of chemicals, seeking to gain the clearest possible expression of vineyard character. From the chiseled, sumptuously mineral Schlossberg to the opulent and broad Furstentum, Blanck’s Grand Cru offerings rank with the best in the region. His single-vineyard (lieux-dits) wines from such sites as Patergarten and Altenbourg are comparably top-flight, and his line of everyday, varietally labeled “Classique” wines show the versatility and breadth of the Blanck range.
