Bott Geyl
Jean-Christophe Bott is heir to a family tradition dating back to 1695 and has been in charge of the Domaine since 1993. He manages both the vineyard and vinification in a traditional and natural way, converting the vineyards to be organic in 2000 and then biodynamic in 2002.
In the vineyards he concentrates on low yields and in the cellars he oversees the vinification in the most natural and minimalist manner.
Today, Bott-Geyl vineyard accounts 15 hectares of vines including 6 Grands Crus and 4 lieux-dits. The small production has allowed him to convert the vineyard to almost totally organic methods, making Domaine Bott-Geyl one of Alsace’s most fashionable wine producers.
Jean-Christophe strives to bring out the natural qualities and the uniqueness of each terroirs and to conduct the vinification in such a way that this uniqueness is embedded in their wines.
