    Les Éléments is the gateway to Domaine Bott-Geyl's universe - a range where each grape variety is allowed to stand alone and show its pure character, grown biodynamically on the estate's land in Katzenthal.

    Expert's Description

    Bott Geyl Les Éléments 2017 is a White Wine from Alsace, France, with an alcohol content of 13.5%. Domaine Bott-Geyl traces its roots back to 1795 and is today run by Jean-Christophe Bott, who in 2002 converted the entire estate to biodynamic viticulture out of a conviction that only living soil produces truly expressive wines. The Les Éléments range is the house's most accessible line and includes single-varietal editions of, among others, Riesling, Pinot Gris and Gewurztraminer, where each bottle reflects the pure grape character rather than a specific single vineyard.

About Bott-Geyl

Bott-Geyl is a French wine house from Alsace, which alongside its well-known white wines also produces crémant using the regional method.

History & Background

Bott Geyl has its roots as a family estate in Beblenheim, Alsace, a region with a long tradition of white wine production along the German border. Over generations the family has grown grapes on some of the region's most acclaimed Grand Cru sites, and in more recent times has embraced biodynamic farming as a way to underline each plot's individual character. The crémant production builds on the same philosophy: hand-picked grapes and a terroir-driven approach, where the bubbles are meant to reflect the site just as clearly as the house's still wines do.

Production & Style

The crémant is made from Alsace grape varieties and undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle, following the classic method.

Signature Style

Fresh, Fruity, Tangy
The flavour is fresh and fruity, with a tangy, sparkling structure.
