Dirler-Cade, Riesling Grand Cru Kitterlé Elément “Terre”

Dirler-Cadé, Riesling Grand Cru Kitterlé Elément “Terre” 2022

Fresh citrus notes with smoky, mineral nuances from sandstone and volcanic soils. The attack shows a fleshy softness that quickly gives way to vibrant mineral tension. The finish is clear and precise, with remarkable concentration and a lingering hint of licorice.

Vineyard & ViTICULTURE

Very steep terroir in Guebwiller, derived from sandstone substrate or volcanic sediments. With generally limited yields, the sandy soil, low in clay, produces crystalline wines with a particularly smoky and mineral expression. East, southeast exposure. Biodynamic practices have been employed since 1998, with meticulous care in the vineyards to protect the special pink sandstone soils.

WINEMAKING & MATURING

Hand-harvested. The grapes are sorted directly on each vine. The whole grapes are pressed using a pneumatic press. Natural static settling. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel vats. Aged on lees for 11 months.

The Winery

Domaine Dirler-Cadé represents 155 years of family dedication to winemaking across five generations. Founded in 1871 by Jean Dirler as Dirler Wines, it’s now guided by the fifth generation and renamed Dirler-Cadé from the 2000 vintage. First, as pioneers in producing sparkling wines in the region, the domaine also championed biodynamic viticulture from 1998, certified by Demeter and Biodyvin.

The 18-hectare estate includes nearly half its vines in four prestigious Grand Crus in Saering, Kessler, Kitterlé, and Spiegel–where the common characteristic of these terroirs is the eroded Buntsandstein sandstone, the presence of which in its pure state in certain plots is almost unique in the world. In the cellar, minimal intervention prevails: spontaneous fermentations, extended lees aging, and a philosophy that lets the vintage and soil speak for themselves.

Fine Wine Reserve is the exclusive distributor for Domaine Dirler-Cadé in Hong Kong S.A.R. and Macau S.A.R.
