Founded on the site of a Capuchin monastery dating to 1612 and owned by the Faller family since 1898, Domaine Weinbach has long been regarded as a benchmark producer of Alsatian wine. Today the estate is farmed biodynamically and is renowned for wines that combine precision, elegance, and a profound expression of terroir. \u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCuvée Théo is named in honor of Théo Faller, who guided the estate until his passing in 1979. The wine is made from 100% riesling, sourced primarily from the estate's historic Clos des Capucins vineyard, with some fruit from younger vines in the Grand Cru Schlossberg vineyard. The vineyards sit on a mix of sandy clay, granite, and gravelly soils that contribute both aromatic intensity and mineral character. \u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFermented with indigenous yeasts and aged for approximately ten months in large neutral oak foudres, the wine balances purity and texture while preserving the vibrant character of riesling. Organic and biodynamic farming practices further emphasize the estate's commitment to expressing the nuances of each vintage and vineyard site. \u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2020 vintage offers aromas of white flowers, lime zest, citrus, peach, apricot, and green apple, layered over a distinctive mineral backbone. The palate is dry, energetic, and finely structured, combining bright acidity with remarkable concentration and a long, saline finish.
