The Barmès children, Maxime and Sophie, have taken up with application and conviction the work initiated by their father (who died accidentally in 2011): organic (certified since 2001) and biodynamic farming, manual work as much as possible, no additives (neither yeast, nor chaptalization, nor fining) other than sulphur in minimal quantities. A single priority: to obtain the best climatic and geological expression of each of the 7 parcels of the estate (4 "villages" and 3 grands crus). Their Rieslings, with great ageing potential, are absolutely exemplary.
Rated three stars in the Revue du Vin de France guide.
Steingrubler, great finesse and length, clay-limestone soil on granite ridge.
The 2022 vintage in the press:
Vinous (Anne Krebiehl - January 2024): 92/100 “The nose is tangerine, with juicy, aromatic and inviting orange notes. The palate continues with the same offensive charm, adding white pepper and more juiciness to the Navel orange on the smooth body. The 2022 is a riesling to seduce the skeptics.”
Bettane & Desseauve (Guide 2025): 95/100

Clos Sand, with granite soil, pure, energetic and crystalline.
The 2022 vintage in the press:
La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 93/100 “A rather free profile for the Clos Sand Riesling, a saline, invigorating wine with a strong granite sheen. Very energetic, backed by beautiful bitters that are still strict on the finish”.
Bettane & Desseauve (Guide 2025): 94/100
Vinous (Anne Krebiehl - January 2024): 92/100 “The nose combines flint and aromatic citrus peel reminiscent of lime, grapefruit and tangerine, highlighting the crushed citrus foliage. The palate is smooth and creamy with yeast, but it's as straightforward as you'd expect from this site. [...] The 2022 is beautiful now but has excellent potential. Wonderfully pure."

Rosenberg, northern slope dominated by sandstone clay and limestone, deep soil, ample and seductive wines.
The 2022 vintage in the press:
Vinous (Anne Krebiehl - January 2024): 93/100 "A blend of six Rosenberg Riesling parcels, from vines aged between 9 and 60 years. [...] The palate is beautifully direct, brimming with citrus, highlighting unctuous, creamy apricot notions, speaking of the ripeness of 2022, but remaining slender and creamy, with just a hint of woody nuttiness."

Hengst, the most powerful and full-bodied, certainly for long ageing, deep marly-limestone soil.
The 2022 vintage in the press:
Vinous (Anne Krebiehl - January 2024): 92-94/100 “The wine offers aromatic, perfumed and pure fresh apple notes. The palate shows ripeness, with apricot compote in the background, showing something almost succulent that is then verified by the textural framework. This is a powerful, yet elegant, athletic Hengst with mellow freshness.”
Bettane & Desseauve (Guide 2025): 94/100

Although the aromatic exuberance of Gewurztraminer is often used to produce sweet wines, this is a "tender" wine, vinified with an emphasis on tension, and sparing residual sugars.
