THE COMPANY

Mathieu Deiss was born in 1984, he graduated at the wine school of Toulouse and, in 2007, started to work alongside with his father, Jean-Michel. His experience with one of the ‘sacred monsters’ of Alsatian viticulture shaped him to such an extent that he decided to take over the management of his maternal uncle’s small estate in Bennwihr with his wife Emmanuelle, while continuing to work in the family business. The work of the vineyard, which is over 50 years old, using biodynamic viticulture, with vinification in wooden vats on the lees for over a year, makes the Vignoble du Rêveur an example of respectful and ‘natural’ winemaking with deep roots in Alsatian tradition. Mathieu’s motto, which he “governs” the estate with his wife Emmanuelle, is to put dreams back at the centre of the world. One common thread, that of nature as a universal truth, and a project for the years to come: rediscovering the mastery of winemaking with maceration for white grapes and the suppression of sulfur dioxide for all wines. Wines, those of Rêveur, with personality and youth from Quaternary gravel terroirs that favor fresh, savory and complex wines. A vision: to be creative, open to the world and to all palates.

Also in Alzazia, as in Europe's largest wine regions, a chain of foothills facing east creates an ideal environment for growing vines. The granite bases of the Vosges induce particular riesling intensity, especially in vineyards such as Schlossberg in Kientzheim. At Riquewihr, Schoenenbourg's marly-clay soil also produces splendid riesling, despite the fact that the Sporen clays south of the village are better suited to the gewurztraminer variety. In Bergheim, the mixed soil of the Altenberg vineyard is beautifully versatile.
