Bulles d’Emma Brut – Julien Meyer
A vibrant, natural sparkling wine with Alsatian character
Bulles d’Emma Brut is a natural sparkling wine made by Julien Meyer in Alsace. Crafted with native grapes using the méthode ancestrale, it combines freshness, fine bubbles, and a dry, savory profile. It’s a lively pétillant naturel (pét-nat) that reflects the Meyer estate’s commitment to biodynamic farming and minimal intervention winemaking.
Vineyard and cellar approach
Julien Meyer cultivates the vines with strict biodynamic practices, respecting the natural rhythms of the soil and plant life. No synthetic chemicals or pesticides are used. In the cellar, fermentation is spontaneous, with the wine bottled before primary fermentation is complete. This method creates natural bubbles without added sugar or secondary fermentation. Aging on fine lees adds texture and aromatic complexity.
Tasting notes
Pale yellow with a fine and persistent perlage.
On the nose: notes of citrus peel, green apple, white flowers, and hints of brioche.
On the palate: crisp and dry, with zesty acidity, a delicate mousse, and a clean, mineral finish.

Domaine Meyer – Julien and Patrick Meyer
Family Roots and Viticultural Continuity
The story of Domaine Meyer begins with Julien Meyer, a passionate winemaker in Alsace. Upon his passing, his son Patrick Meyer inherited the vineyards and the family tradition. Interestingly, Patrick initially returned to conventional farming before committing fully to natural, chemical-free, and holistic viticulture, building upon and evolving his father’s legacy.
A Conscious Transformation
Patrick’s dual shift—first toward traditional methods, then fully into natural winemaking—marks a rare and thoughtful path in the world of natural wine. His work reflects a commitment to soil health, vine vitality, and the authentic expression of grape and place. Every choice in the vineyard and cellar is guided by respect for ecological balance and varietal purity.
Experimental Yet Deeply Authentic Wines
Domaine Meyer’s wines are known for their bold expressiveness. Labels like LouLou, Pinot Gris Maceration, and Riesling Grand Cru Muenchberg are surprising and memorable. Each bottle showcases Alsatian identity with both raw honesty and stylistic freedom—wines that break conventions while remaining true to their roots.
Philosophy and Impact
For Patrick, wine is a tool to narrate the land, the seasons, and the deeply Alsatian landscape. His work is craft-based, observational, and low-intervention, with no added sulfites or chemicals. It’s a philosophy for those who seek transparent, emotional, and living wines, produced with consistency and a strong sense of familial memory.
