{"title":"Les Vins Pirouettes","description":"\u003cp\u003eLes Vins Pirouettes was born out of a simple observation: Alsace had no shortage of talented, conscientious growers farming organically and biodynamically , but most of them were selling their fruit to cooperatives rather than making wine under their own name. Christian Binner, already a recognized figure in Alsatian natural wine, set out to change that.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBinner has farmed his family's 11-hectare estate in Ammerschwihr , documented since 1770 , using biodynamic methods since 2003. In 2009 he launched Les Vins Pirouettes as a collaborative label, inviting small growers to vinify their own fruit with his guidance and bring the resulting wines to market. The project has grown steadily; as of the mid-2020s, over twenty growers participate. Since 2023 the Lycée Viticole de Rouffach , one of France's official winemaking schools , has joined the project, marking natural winemaking's entry into France's formal enological curriculum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMore on how they farm and work in the cellar in our \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/natural-wine-producers-primal-wine\/les-vins-pirouettes\"\u003eLes Vins Pirouettes producer profile\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"le-brutal-de-jean-marc-les-vins-pirouettes-natural-wine","title":"Les Vins Pirouettes Le Brutal de Jean-Marc 2020","description":"\u003cp\u003eLe Brutal de Jean-Marc is a skin-contact orange wine from Rosheim, in the Bas-Rhin department of Alsace.
