Now Viewing: Domaine (Fabien) Stirn
This is a small winery presently and I'm guessing their production will grow in the next few years. Having tasted a range of offerings from winemaker and grape grower Fabien Stirn, one is impressed by the finesse of his wines and the balance embodied by nearly every one. Located in Sigolsheim, they have a number of grand cru sites in their portfolio, including Brand, Mambourg, Marckrain and Sonnenglanz. The estate has vineyards in 8 villages near Sigolsheim. They produce a sensational 2002 Muscat. In terms of Domaine Stirn, the wine is young and fresh, with amazingly intense fragrances and Muscat flavors. You can just about taste the fresh fruit in this wine. It's also rather dry, so opening a bottle on a hot day is a most sensible idea.
