More About Domaine Josmeyer 2020 Pinot Gris Le Fromenteau

Formerly known as Fromenteau in Île de France, Pinot Gris has a more earthy personality, evoking fields of cereals, harvest time, and nourishing earth. The grapes are sourced from old vine plots on the Herrenweg of Turckheim and Wintzenheim, an area characterized by gravelly-sandy colluvium deposits, alluvium, and pebbles. Similar to the soil of Graves, this terroir produces aromatic, ripe, and elegant wines.

Since 2004, the vineyard has been cultivated organically and biodynamically, fostering a symbiosis between the sky, earth, plant, and man. This close relationship generates noble grapes that produce dense and balanced wines with unique personalities.

The grapes are harvested by hand and pneumatically pressed whole for 5 to 8 hours. Coming exclusively from organic and biodynamic farming, they naturally transfer their aromas to the must. Fermentation occurs spontaneously without added enzymes, selected yeasts, or chaptalization, lasting from one to four months. The wine is then aged in century-old oak tuns or stainless steel vats, depending on the case.

Meet the Producer, Domaine Josmeyer

Domaine Josmeyer

Style: Winery

Domaine Josmeyer is one of Alsace’s great historic producers and the sort of winery that reminds you just how exciting Riesling, Pinot Gris and Gewürztraminer can be when they’re made with precision instead of turning into aggressively perfumed headache fuel. Based in Wintzenheim near Colmar, the domaine has been family-run for generations and has become one of the leading names in biodynamic Alsace winemaking.

The wines here are all about energy, texture and clarity. Even the richer varieties stay vibrant and lifted, balancing ripe fruit with stony minerality and proper acidity. Riesling comes packed with lime, citrus oil and wet stone freshness, while Pinot Gris and Gewürztraminer manage the difficult task of being aromatic and expressive without feeling like somebody sprayed perfume directly into your glass.

Josmeyer’s approach in the vineyard is deeply connected to biodynamic farming and low-intervention winemaking, but the wines never feel overly wild or unstable. There’s a calm confidence running through everything they produce. The focus is always on purity, site expression and drinkability rather than making wines that scream for attention.

One of the best things about Domaine Josmeyer is how versatile the wines are with food. Alsace wines can sometimes get unfairly pigeonholed into “Christmas wine” territory, but Josmeyer bottles work beautifully with everything from spicy food and seafood to rich roast dinners and terrifyingly expensive cheese boards you promised yourself you wouldn’t buy.
