Visite très bien expliquée par cette charmante petite suédoise , on a eu un échange de dialogue qui était très intéressant. Je recommande cette visite. Pour ce qui est de la dégustation , ces vins sont excellents surtout ce pinot gris grand cru. Nous sommes repartis avec quelques bouteilles mais sans obligation de la part de notre hôtesse. N'hésitez pas, vous ne regrettez pas de cette visite.

Accueil agréable et visite commenté très précise et enrichissante. Installation entre modernité et tradition. Une dégustation agréable et généreuse a l image de la région.

Très Bon accueil, commentaires complets et dégustation

I'm from the Basque Country and I'm used to Rioja style wines and cellar. I think that Alsacian wine world is totally different for ours and Kuentz-Bas is the best place to understand this new paradigma. They work with AOC, BIO and DEMETER wines and we can find more than 40 references in their wine-bar. In my opinion this is unbelievable! The cellar is an authentic labyrinth! All the alsacian wines in all the containers that you can imagine (inox, concrete, bordelaise cask, big wood fermentation chains, ceramic eggs...). It isn't as big as the cellars we are used to in Rioja, but they work with more varieties of wine than any other one in Rioja or Bourdeaux, or Languedoc, or Ampurdá, or any area I know. It is basically because they do monovarietal wines, they work with all the grapes of Alsace vineyard, and finally because they have three different working methods, one for each quality certification. They have vineyards but I think they buy most of they grapes to independent producers, so the bottles are sold with "negociant" signature. Their best values are the Gewurtztraminer and Muscat, but I think that is easier to find good gewurtz so I recommend especially the muscat. It is a very balanced wine, maybe the most atractive for north-penisular bouquet used to Alvariño, Hondarribi and Atlantic acid grapes. They make especially good "vendajes tardives" wine with these two grapes, and the 50cl Demeter signature "vendajes tardives" Muscat is my personal recommendation for you. It is the less sweet wine of this type and I think that it is the easiest to pair with savoury dishes. Finally the wine -bar. It is small I think (this was the only one I saw in Alsace!) so I'm comparing it with big Rioja bodegas (Muga, Baigorri...), but it is like an Alsacian home. Wooden, confortable, rustic and relaxing to taste. It's like homemade food. We did the tour in French and we enjoyed a lot!

Fijne ontvangst door aangename gastvrouw, verrassende wijnen, vooral die van eigen terroir Trois Chateaux
