Pierres Chaudes Pinot Noir 2022 – Julien Meyer
A natural, elegant, and characterful Pinot Noir from Alsace

Pierres Chaudes Pinot Noir 2022 is a natural red wine made by Julien Meyer in the heart of Alsace. The Pinot Noir grapes, grown on gravelly soils rich in warm stones, provide this wine with structure, complexity, and a pleasant minerality. This wine faithfully reflects the terroir and the biodynamic approach of the winery, which favors natural methods and respect for the vine’s life cycle.

Vineyard philosophy and winemaking
The vineyard is managed according to strict biodynamic principles, without the use of pesticides or synthetic chemicals. The vines grow in harmony with the surrounding environment, enhancing biodiversity and the local microclimate. In the cellar, vinification is spontaneous and additive-free, with natural fermentations and prolonged aging on fine lees that lend elegance and complexity to the wine. The result is a lively, authentic Pinot Noir without filtration.

Tasting notes
Bright ruby red color, clear and inviting.
On the nose: aromas of ripe cherry, berries, spicy notes, and a subtle mineral hint.
On the palate: fresh, elegant, and well-structured with soft tannins and a long, harmonious finish that leaves a pleasant fruity persistence.

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.
