La Bullette de David is a pét-nat (pétillant naturel) made from 100% Riesling grown by David Koeberle at Domaine Muller-Koeberle in Saint-Hippolyte, Alsace. The estate sits on granite soils at the foot of the Haut-Koenigsbourg, and David farms 27 hectares organically and biodynamically under both Ecocert/Demeter certification and the Vin Méthode Nature label.
The grapes are hand-harvested and direct-pressed, then fermented in stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeast and zero sulfur additions. Before fermentation finishes, the wine is transferred to bottle to complete its single fermentation naturally — the ancestral method that generates gentle, round bubbles without any added sugar, yeast, or sulfur. The wine is unfiltered and left undisgorged, so expect a slight haze and fine sediment.
On the palate it delivers nectarine, apricot, honey-crisp apple, and pear alongside a savory undercurrent reminiscent of mustard seed. At 11% ABV the fizz is delicate rather than aggressive, making it a go-to aperitif or a low-intervention counterpart to the more structured sparkling wines of Alsace.
La Bullette de David is one cuvée within Les Vins Pirouettes, a collective founded in 2008 by Christian Binner of Ammerschwihr. The project pairs Binner's two decades of zero-zero winemaking experience with the grapes of independent organic and biodynamic growers across Alsace — David's name on the label identifies him as the grower and vinifier behind this bottling.
