Granite Blanc is what you get when you stop thinking about Alsace one grape at a time. It's a dry white made from Riesling, Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir grown together on the same slopes. The name is literal: the vines grow in sandy, stony granite facing east. The Becks harvest entirely by hand. The wine is bottled unfiltered, so it's natural wine in the truest sense. That restraint runs in the family, which traces its history back to 1590. Florian's mother Yvette was one of the first in the region to let grass grow between the vines in 1982, and Florian helped found Vinabio, an Alsace organic charter that regulates winemaking inputs. When you open it, pull the cork an hour ahead, serve it at around 10°C and decant it if there's too much natural spritz.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Raw oysters; dressed crab or crab cakes; escargots in garlic-parsley butter; sole or trout with a lemon-butter sauce.

Tasting Profile

Expect a light-bodied, dry Alsace blend: Riesling typically brings citrus, green apple and lively acidity, while Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir add hints of pear, stone fruit and a little more texture. Granite soils usually lend a salty, stony edge. Because it's unfiltered, it may look slightly hazy and taste a bit savoury, finishing crisp and mineral.
