Hidden Gems in Ammerschwihr

Domaine Geschickt ★ 4.5

Alsace Grand Cru KaefferkopfRiesling, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, GewurztraminerFounded 1576Frederic GeschicktBiodynamic PracticingECOCERTAmmerschwihr

An Ammerschwihr biodynamic estate dating to 1576, run by Frederic Geschickt with serious skin-contact and zero-sulphur cuvees alongside Grand Cru Kaefferkopf.

Tip: Ask for the skin-contact Pinot Gris and a Kaefferkopf Riesling side by side; production is small so allocations move through natural-wine specialists.

Frederic Geschickt runs this 1576-founded Ammerschwihr estate as a recognised Alsace natural-wine address, organic since 1998 with skin-contact whites and zero-sulphur cuvees alongside Kaefferkopf Grand Cru bottlings.

Tip: Ask for a side-by-side of the skin-contact Pinot Gris and a conventional Kaefferkopf Riesling; allocations move through natural-wine specialists.

Domaine Geschickt (zero-sulphur cuvees) ★ 4.4

Biodynamic PracticingECOCERTNaturalAmmerschwihr

Frederic Geschickt produces zero-sulphur cuvees alongside the main biodynamic range. The Ammerschwihr estate is a recognised Alsace natural-wine address working at the low-sulphite end of the spectrum.

Tip: Ask specifically for the zero-sulphur skin-contact whites; production is small so allocations sell out through natural-wine specialists quickly.
