2016 La Fontaine Aux Enfants

We had this 2016 La Fontaine Aux Enfrants Marc Kreydenweiss Pinot Blanc with dinner a few nights ago when my husband made grilled chicken and grilled vegetables. After the first sip, I thought that it tasted like the Auxerrois that we make. My husband said, close, it is a Pinot Blanc from Alsace. The aroma to me were of stone fruit, white peaches and pears. There was a good acidity to the wine, which our palates have now become quite accustomed to.
On the second night that we tried this wine we had it with grilled corn, avocado, and tortilla chip salad. This was a wonderful combination. I really liked this recipe which I got from "Vice". It is a perfect summer time recipe because everyone is grilling corn and if you have extra grilled corn, this is the way to use it. This wine pairs very well with summertime grilled food.

My husband pointed out that there is a lot more information about Marc Kreydenweiss on the Internet and sure enough there is. The winery is located in Andlau, in Alsace, between Strasbourg and Colmar, in the area called Piemont des Vosges.
On The Wine Anorak, Jamie Goode wrote that Marc Kreydenweiss has 12 ha of vineyards in Andlau, including parts of three Grand Cru sites in Wiebelsberg, Moenchberg and Kastelberg. The domaine is over three centuries old, and was taken over by Marc in 1971. It has been biodynamically managed since 1989 and the first entirely biodynamic vintage was in 1991.
In 2007, Marc Kreydenweiss' son, Antoine Kreydenweiss took over the management of the vineyard. He is accompanied by his wife Charlotte, their daughters Zoe, Lilou and Leonie, the whole team and his horse.
