The ‘Glou Glou de David’ Riesling Les Vins Pirouettes is a typically aromatic expression made by a group of Alsatian producers in synergy with the winery Christian Binner, a renowned vigneron practicing biodynamics. The project is named “Les Vins Pirouettes” and allows these winemakers to craft their wine under the supervision of Christian, who is tired of seeing small wineries forced to sell their excellent quality grapes to large cooperatives that process them inadequately. A fundamental premise of the project is that the grape growers operate in the name of sustainability.
The Riesling ‘Glou Glou de David’ from Les Vins Pirouettes and Christian Binner is produced solely from Riesling grapes from 45-year-old vines cultivated according to biodynamic principles on granitic soils. The harvest is carried out entirely by hand, and the bunches are then gently pressed directly, with the resulting must placed in stainless steel tanks for spontaneous alcoholic fermentation. The subsequent maturation period of 11 months on the fine lees also takes place in steel.and the wine is finally bottled without added sulfites and without undergoing clarifications and filtrations.
In appearance, Les Vins Pirouettes and Christian Binner Riesling ‘Glou Glou de David’ expresses a cloudy straw yellow hue with golden highlights. On the nose, fragrant and slightly aromatic notes of lemon, green apple, yellow peach, exotic fruit, and white flowers follow one another. Compact, light, and very drinkable is the taste, characterized by excellent fresh-salty drive and good aromatic and mineral persistence. An Alsatian Riesling that pairs exceptionally well with various fish-based preparations, including those from Eastern cuisine.
