Klevener, Alsace's mysterious wine

Klevener de Heiligenstein is a white wine produced in the Alsace vineyards around Heiligenstein, from the savagnin rose grape variety.

It was in Heiligenstein, in 1742, that Klevener, a golden-hued wine, first appeared following a trip to the Italian Tyrol by mayor Wantz.

It is grown on an area of only about 97 hectares, mainly in Heiligenstein but also in 4 surrounding villages, making it a rare wine, unofficially considered the 8th Alsatian grape variety.

A distant cousin of savagnin rose and gewurztraminer, Klevener has a complex, well-developed aromatic palette. Beyond fruity aromas, you can also detect mineral notes, as well as honey and spice.

This little-known wine can accompany you throughout your Alsatian tastings.
