Alsace Wine Maker’s Dinner with Michel Fonne
2nd June 2008 at Dining on the Rocks
 

The settlement of the village can be traced back to the middle ages. It successively belonged to the lords of Horbourg, the counts of Wurtemberg, the bishop of Strasbourg and to the lords of Ribeaupierre until the revolution.

Michel Fonné, is a certified œnologist from Dijon. After having obtained the technical expertise in Champenoise winemaking in Damery and after having made wine from the 1987 harvest in the Alexander valley in California (Hafner Vineyard), Michel took over the family business of his uncle, René Barth.

The harvest is carried out manually. This allows for specific years to experience a quality sorting of the grapes. The pressing of (none treaded) whole grapes from white types of vines takes place on the pneumatic press.
 
This technique prevents the dissolution of the decay in the juice extracts and strongly limits the extraction of the bitter or herbaceous tastes.
Each part of the vine is made into wine separately in order to evidence the proper characteristics of each piece of land.

It is with great pleasure that co-owner Michel Fonné presents a selection of the finest wines from Alsace. The five-course menu will be prepared by Executive Chef, Thomas Jakobi and will be 3,500 THB per person.
