Zind Humbrecht
About Zind Humbrecht
Domaine Zind-Humbrecht in the Alsace, was created in 1959 continuing the Humbrecht family’s history of wine growing for three centuries. It is now managed by Olivier Humbrecht, the first Frenchman to become a master of wine.
One of the most important domaines in Alsace since its foundation in 1620, Domaine Zind Humbrecht has been passed down through generations of the Humbrecht Family for 400 years. Not only is the domaine one of the most traditional, it is also one of the most dynamic in this heavily German-influenced French wine region.
Perhaps it is four centuries of experience and dedication to their land and terroir that led them to convert to biodynamics back in 1997. The results are tangible and their wines, especially those from the most prestigious Grands Crus, go toe-to-toe with the finest white wines in the world.

This self-confidently atypical pinot gris has astonishing acidity that’s got the intensity of a lightning strike. Tons of pineapple and toast character, but also gigantic, lemony freshness at the exceptionally bright finish. May be too extreme for some, but we find this amazing. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.Inc. VAT£307.24
