DOMAINE GÉRARD METZ
The Metz family has been established in Itterswiller for three generations. Since 1996, Gérard Metz's son-in-law, Eric Casimir (of Champagne origin, he makes delicious Crémants d'Alsace) has been running the estate. The estate is located on 15 hectares on the famous wine-growing hillsides of Itterswiller, Epfig, Nothalten and Heiligenstein. Believing that the best grapes come from environmentally friendly viticulture, the estate favours products used in organic farming for foliar treatments. In the winery, the vinification process involves slow fermentation using indigenous yeasts, delicate pressing and maturing on whole lees. For Eric Casimir, the winegrower is like a musician whose notes would be the terroirs, the grape varieties and the climate. He favours dry wines whose beautiful aromatic expression makes them precious friends of gastronomy. It is always very pleasant to settle in the tasting cellar called l'Atelier de chez Metz. Here you can taste in a joyful atmosphere the good vintages of the estate: Riesling Muenchberg, Klevener de Heiligenstein, Pinot Gris Fruehmess, here are beautiful oenological scores that reveal, without any false notes, the harmonic power of the great wines of Alsace!
