Les Vins Pirouettes Litron de Eric Alsace White Wine 1L

From Christian Binner's Les Vins Pirouettes project, which pairs his two decades of natural winemaking with young organic and biodynamic Alsace growers who might otherwise sell their grapes to cooperatives, the Litron Blanc de Eric is a still white made from grower Eric's own fruit. Bottled in a generous one-litre "Litron," this natural white is made in the bright, fresh, easy-drinking style the series is known for. It's an affordable, honest bottle for weeknight dinners, picnics, or seafood, and it supports small-scale growers with every pour.

Les Vins Pirouettes is Christian Binner's project to make affordable natural wine while helping organic and biodynamic growers in Alsace keep their grapes out of the cooperative system. Each cuvée is made at a young grower's own winery, pairing the grower's fruit with Binner's two decades of natural winemaking experience. This bottling comes from Eric's vineyards. It's a still Alsace white made in the natural style and bottled in the generous one-litre "Litron" format.

Expect a fresh, lively aromatic profile in the green, flinty style typical of Alsace's crisp, mineral whites.

The palate is bright and crisp. The natural, low-intervention approach gives it a vibrant, energetic mouthfeel and keeps it refreshing and easy to drink.

Clean and refreshing, with a lingering crispness that invites another glass.

Every bottle supports independent organic and biodynamic growers making their own wine instead of selling their harvest to cooperatives. It belongs to the Pirouettes Litron series of grower-named wines, so each bottling reflects one grower's vineyards and character. The one-litre format makes it a fine value for sharing.

Serve well chilled as an easygoing aperitif or a crowd-pleasing table wine. Its freshness and crisp acidity suit fish dishes, especially richer, oily fish, along with light, casual fare. Like many natural wines, it is best enjoyed fresh once opened.
