ESTATE HISTORY
When they returned from the Second World War, Marguerite and Jean Kappler realized their dreams of cultivating vines and making their own wine. Over time, the farm grew slowly but surely. In 1956, they gave birth to Jean-Pierre. The new generation is then present. After studying at the agricultural school, Jean-Pierre did internships mainly in the Alsatian and Champagne vineyards where he discovered the traditional method of making sparkling wines.
It was in the 1970s that Jean-Pierre succeeded Jean.
From the union of Véronique and Jean-Pierre, in the 80s, was born the future third generation. Guillaume in 1987 and Geoffroy in 1993.
Jean-Pierre, for his part, has been retired since October 2018 but still keeps a very close eye on the work of his two sons.

TASTING & FOOD PAIRINGS
Pale golden yellow with sparkling green highlights. Very elegant jamb. There are notes of verbena (lemon balm infusion) with a finish on mineral nuances. These are expressions of a ripe Riesling. The fruit expresses itself with its freshness and reveals the elegant character of the wine without heaviness.
Powerful aromas of mirabelle plums delicately balanced by its freshness. Beautiful mineral potential that will give a beautiful complexity to the wine.
