When you're looking for a rich, flavorful red wine you have plenty of options. But if you want to support a grower that farms sustainably, that's not always easy.

Fortunately, with Marc Kreydenweiss, you get both in one bottle - with a top-class wine straight from northeastern France.

The History of Marc Kreydenweiss

At the feet of a mountain range in Andlau, Alsace, France, Marc Kreydenweiss and his family have been growing grapes and making wine for decades. Most of their small farm's crop is planted along steep hillsides, where soil conditions and the mild local climate combine to create exciting flavors.

Operated since 2007 by Antoine Kreydenweiss, the farm - measuring just 33 acres - produces about 120,000 bottles. And since 1989, the family has used biodynamical growing methods to ensure the purest grapes are cultivated in harmony with nature.

Marc Kreydenweiss Company Mission

The Marc Kreydenweiss method involves farming with biodynamics, meaning that growers use the natural makeup of the soil to dictate how they will cultivate their grapes.

Add in a sustainable, organic, pesticide-free approach and it's easy to see why this brand has become a favorite among clean wine enthusiasts around the world.
