DOMAINE HERING
Go there and contact
The Hering family has been producing wine in Barr since 1858. Certified AB, their 12-hectare vineyard extends over the whole of the communal area in the foothills of the Vosges. It includes vines on the limestone soils of the Kirchberg de Barr Grand Cru, on the Clos de la Folie Marco (sheltered from the north winds), on the Clos Gaensbroennel (favourable to gewurztraminer) as well as on the so-called Krug and Rosenegert sites (where the estate practises complantation). The Hering family alternates mowing and ploughing to encourage pollination. The grapes are harvested by hand, after which the juice is extracted by pneumatic pressing at low pressure. Fermentation in Vosges oak tuns takes place without exogenous yeasts. The estate offers days or half-days to discover the various aspects of the Alsatian vineyard, from vine to wine (ask at the estate). A pleasant gîte (2-4 people) is set up as a duplex in a beautiful Alsatian house with a view of the Kirchberg vineyard. Some good wines to discover in the superb tasting room at the foot of the Kirchberg de Barr or in the pretty shop at the entrance of Domaine Hering: pinot noir Cuvée du Chat Noir 2018, Lieu dit Rosenberg (organic complantation) 2018, riesling Grand Cru Kirchberg de Barr 2018, crémant Blanc de Noirs Cuvée Prestige 2016 organic.
