Our raison d'être

The Cave de Cleebourg is tireless in its pursuit of authenticity. Located in the very north of Alsace, the Cleebourg vineyard benefits from 10 exceptional "Lieu-dits" terroirs with high potential. Terroirs that are still secret and produce unexpected wines.

Cleebourg offers a range of wines of established variety and quality. The winery grows, vinifies and blends seven Alsatian grape varieties (sylvaner, pinot blanc, muscat, riesling, pinot gris, gewürztraminer and pinot noir). The work of a master craftsman begins in the vineyard with 60% of the harvest being done by hand.

Respect for the land and the sustainability of production are essential. Preserving the environment and limiting our impact are at the heart of our viticulture, from the process of vinification to the tools and means of transport we use.

Sylvaner Sigillé Confrérie Saint-Etienne

A deep yellow colour with golden, slightly amber reflections. This wine is endowed with a great aromatic complexity, it combines quince and peach aromas with honeyed and grilled touches.

On the palate, toasted and brioche nuances, it is frank on the attack, concentrated and harmonious. The finish is supported by an interesting lemony liveliness which balances this wine perfectly and makes it very gastronomic.

Vendanges Tardives & Grains Nobles

You will only find them when Mother Nature gives us the privilege of making them. Indeed, late harvests and selections of “grains nobles” can only be vinified if the climatic conditions of the vintage are favorable and the grapes are of impeccable quality. These are very rich, full and fat, round and opulent wines, with aromas that are both heightened and fine, real treasures.

Working in the vineyard

An ecological commitment

The CAVE DE CLEEBOURG launched the HVE (High Environmental Value) certificate in 2020.

This label makes it possible to promote the good practices of Alsatian integrated viticulture. This new official label does not compete with organic farming, but is well positioned as a complement, with the aim of reducing and controlling additives.

The short-term objective is that all the winery's affiliated farms should be able to demonstrate compliance with the essential practices of environmental regulations, to adopt mainly technical practices with a low environmental impact, to present farms with a high level of biodiversity, and to make very low use of additives (phytosanitary products, nitrogen fertilisers and water). Some of the members have even already taken the step of certifying their farms as organic, allowing the cooperative to present a selection of organic wines at the same time.

Working in the vineyard

The harvest

Maturity checks are carried out each year on around 50 plots using an infrared analyser. This makes it possible to internally set the dates for bringing in the different grape varieties after the opening of the harvest.

The teams of pickers are taking the vineyard by storm as the harvest is still mainly done by hand. The ideal harvest, for the AOC Alsace, starts in October. However, a beautiful autumn may allow late harvests or selections of noble grapes in November or December.
