After a successful buying trip five years ago, we somewhat lost track of Jean-Marie and Myriam Haag, but on a recent visit they were very much on form. As with several of our other suppliers in Alsace, the cellar is below the family home in the centre of one of the many unfeasibly attractive villages nestled into the lower slopes of the Vosges mountains. The estate covers about 6 hectares, half of which is planted to Pinot Gris and Gewurztraminer, followed by Riesling, Pinot Noir and smaller amounts of the other authorised varieties.
