Jean-Louis et Véronique Mann

First off, do not confuse this estate with the perhaps better known Albert Mann estate, located in the town of Wettolsheim. Instead, the Jean-Louis and Fabienne Mann estate is situated in Eguisheim and was born by uniting the vineyard holdings of Jean-Louis (in the countryside around Eguisheim) and Fabienne (around the town of Ingersheim). And so today the estate owns 13 hectares (the website says 12 but Sebastien tells me the total has slightly increased) from which they make 45,000-50,000 bottles a year and 35 different wines; actually, in some years they will make even more wines, and perhaps as few as 600 bottles of a single wine they especially liked (and if it has a specific expression of place). The estate has been farmed organically since 2008. They used to sell grapes to two different cooperatives but decided to start bottling their own winess. Son Sebastien Mann is taking on an ever-larger role with the passing years. He is a real terroir fanatic and loves the challenge of working with the many sites where the estate has vines in the grands crus Pfersigberg and Eichberg, and in the lieux-dits Altengarten, Dorfburg, Kleinfeld, Letzenberg, Logelberg, Ortel, Rosenberg, Steinweg and Sungass.
