I’ll Drink to That: Mathieu Deiss

Episode 386: Friday, October 14, 2016

Levi Dalton talks with Mathieu Deiss, the most recent generation of Domaine Marcel Deiss in Bergheim in Alsace. They talk about what distinguishes Deiss from other Alsacian producers: field blends (co-plantation) in order to put the absolute emphasis on terroir rather than grape variety. The interview starts at 8:05.

Also in this episode, Erin Scala learns about the history of the village of Bergheim, the history of the wine industry in the area, and even Alsatian witch-hunts!
