  • Alsace wine producer Domaine Bott Geyl has been
    managed by Jean-Christophe Bott since 1993. He
    converted the vineyards to be organic in 2000 and
    then biodynamic in 2002.

3
  • Jean-Christophe Bott is heir to the family
    tradition dating back to 1795, when his ancestor,
    Jean-Martin Geyl tended his vines and made his
    wine.

4
  • In the vineyards he concentrates on low yields
    and in the cellars he oversees the vinification
    in the most natural and minimalist manner. The
    whole art is to bring together tradition and
    modernity, to perpetuate the vignoble for
    posterity and to protect its ecology.

  • Today, he has the good fortune to tend 15
    hectares of vines including 6 Grands Crus and 4
    Lieux-dits. He strives to bring out the natural
    qualities and the uniqueness of each of his
    terroirs and to conduct the vinification in such
    a way that this uniqueness is imbedded in his
    wines.

7
  • This search for the authentic does not follow
    fashion Jean-Christophe Bott has drawn directly
    from the riches of viticulture in the past, from
    omnipresent Nature and from his experiences at
    wine producers in France, in Germany and in the
    New World.

8
  • It is his way of bringing together the history of
    the men and the women of the Bott family of
    Ribeauvillé and the Geyl family of Béblenheim,
    who trod the ground of the chai and of the
    vineyards over the generations.

    over 7 communes from Ribeauvillé to Kientzheim in
    the heart of the region named the the Pearls of
    Vignoble.

11
  • These wines from entry level Les Elements to
    Grand Cru are outstanding and amoungst the best
    in all of Alsace.
