Think wonderful flowers and luscious apricot influence in the nose, then flavors fully rounded and fruit laced with flower petals. Though leaning towards sweetness, the crisp acidity keeps this wine in perfect balance.
This well regarded Alsace domaine is run by two brothers, Maurice and Jacky Barthelmé in the village of Wettolsheim, near Colmar.
Maurice, who took over here in 1984, is married to the granddaughter of the late Albert Mann who gave his name to the domaine. It’s not a huge operation: they have 19 hectares in all, but five of these are in five different Grand Cru vineyards and a further two are in Lieux-dits. They’ve taken a quality-minded approach, and say all the right things about respect for the soil and the importance of low yields.
Domaine Albert Mann was rated by Robert Parker, JR’s The Wine Advocate in the top tier of Alsace producers, and the Domaine received a “star” rating in The Classement 2000 by the Revue du Vin de France.
