Dreyfus Ashby Winter Portfolio 2023
France Alsace
History • Located in Riquewihr, the heart of winemaking country in Alsace’s Haut-Rhin region, Dopff & Irion was created with the marriage of two of Alsace’s wine families, the Irions and the Dopffs, which can both trace their winemaking roots to the 16th century. • The historic Château de Riquewihr—now Dopff & Irion’s cellar and tasting room—was once owned by the Princes of Wurtemberg.
Vineyards
• Most of the vines are planted at an altitude between 200 and 400 meters with a S, S/E exposure. • Extraordinary diversity of soils, subsoil and microclimates result in a wide range of wines Winemaking • Viticulture ‘raisonnée’ (minimum use of pesticides, preservation of biodiversity)

• Riesling
• Pinot Blanc

Crémant D’Alsace All of our Crémants are brut. This result is obtained when we disgorge the sweet liqueur, by adding less than 15g/l of concentrated sugar (legal limit in the production of Crémant) to conserve the dry and elegant style of our Crémants. Our wines, like Champagne, are not vintage offerings in order for us to blend different years, thereby ensuring excellent consistent quality.
