Domaine Bliemerose, operation Les Solidaires

<p>The bottles aren&#39;t full! We still need you: support, contribute, share, create a buzz!<br /> <br /> <strong>We&#39;re counting on you!</strong></p> <h2><strong>The Domain and its project:</strong></h2> <p>As spring appears, we all feel the need to emerge from our winter shelters and revel in <strong>nature&rsquo;s renewal</strong>&hellip;. even if it might not be quite legal yet.</p> <p>Hello, my name is Carmelle, Owner and Winemaker&nbsp;at Domaine Bliemerose, a small family-owned winery. We are certified organic, and in conversion to biodynamics. At the domaine, you will also meet Carine and Anthony as well as Thibault, Marie-Marthe and Xavier. We are nestled in the heart of Alsace, one of the French regions that has suffered the most during the Covid-19 pandemic. Like many in our region, our winery is facing its own mortality due to the current the economic crisis. Yet, wine is something that connects us, and a glass shared among friends is an apt symbol for the burgeoning sensation of <strong>cooperation and solidarity</strong> that is arising in response to these times. We are all in this together, and in this spirit, we are launching a new, innovative operation &ldquo;<strong>Les Solidaires</strong>&rdquo; (Solidarity).</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/666029/vt-westerberg-500-1590391104.jpg" /></p> <h2><strong>Les Solidaires initiative:</strong></h2> <p>Via this crowdfunding initiative using a pledge and reward system, we consider &laquo;Les Solidaires&raquo; an invitation for you to enjoy the charms of the Alsatian Heritage while supporting local viticulture and a commitment to community. Today, we propose that you, a concerned citizen and lover of tradition, support us and join the &laquo;Les Solidaires&raquo; movement with just a few clicks. In so doing:</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/666467/vigne-des-solidaires-1000-1590501979-1590524552.jpg" width="100%" /></p> <p>You will support the local economy, small scale, organic agriculture, and directly back a producer with a strong attachment to her land. She asks for your interest and your generosity so she can continue her <em>savoir-faire</em> and perpetuate the quintessential French lifestyle.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/666746/bio-vi-1590682010.jpg" /></p> <p>You will contribute to the national effort by helping small associations&nbsp;resume or continue their activities. We will contribute to efforts that help the most fragile in the aftermath of the Coronavirus crisis. Ten percent of our sales (excluding shipping costs) will be donated to the Fondation de France.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/665964/logo-fdf-110x110-rgb__2_-1589815442-1590245319-1590338809.png" /></p> <h2><strong>Description of the Rewards:&nbsp;The vineyard and 4 unique wines </strong></h2> <p>The Westerberg Grape is the most prestigious of our vines, and is grown on the best terroir of the village. It is a fitting symbol for the &ldquo;Les Solidaires&rdquo;. With a pledge at the level of &ldquo;The vine of Solidarity&rdquo;, your name, or the name of your choice, will be prominently displayed on a Westerberg vine. We will send you a photo and video of the vine bearing your name.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/666469/IMG-3690-500-1590410858-1590524594.jpg" /></p> <p>This opportunity to memorialize an unprecedented time in history is also an invitation to you to visit and be filmed with the vine you&rsquo;ve supported, and more still&hellip;..</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/666030/vend-19-500-1590391125.jpg" /></p> <p>We invite you to come for the harvest, enjoy the good ambiance, the convivial nature of meals, and experience the pride and honor of putting the grapes from your vine directly into the press.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/666031/anthony-repas-vend-500-1590391142.jpg" /></p> <p>As a reward for your support, you will have the opportunity to treat yourself and others to four original vintages at a promotional price. With operation &ldquo;Les Solidaires&rdquo; four new wines from Domaine Bliemerose will be bottled, and are exclusive to this operation. We are pricing them lower than usual for the Domaine. Nonetheless, they adhere to our standards of passionate elaboration, beautiful balance, remarkable finesse and sustained elegance. The following vintages will be bottled thanks to your generosity and collective solidarity:</p> <ul> <li>Le Naturel: A dry, nature, white wine, unfiltered and sulphites-free, with captivating aromas and a striking finesse.</li> <li>Le Gewurztraminer: Demi-sec and very aromatic with sweet, floral, spicy and smooth notes.</li> <li>&nbsp;Le Feu d &rsquo;Artifice: White wine with a sensation of sweetness. The complex, multi-dimensional flavors sparkle and rise, swirling with the aromas into an explosion of tastes.</li> <li>Le Sylvaner: Dry white wine with a pleasing minerality and discrete notes of pine.</li> </ul> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/666470/vins-1590400997-1590524618.jpg" width="100%" /></p> <p>Are your senses calling out to you yet?</p> <h2><strong>Your contribution :</strong></h2> <p>All you have to do is to <strong>become a part of &ldquo;Les Solidaires&rdquo;</strong>, and your senses will be liberated (&hellip;along with our vats). You will support the vines, and the wine, for yourself, for us, for everyone. You will become a part of the <strong>solidarity movement, Epicureanism</strong>, and demonstrate a passion for the terroir. Once in, all you will need to do is sit back, and wait for us to bottle nature&#39;s delights so they may come to you.</p> <p>Participants in France (excluding Corsica, Monaco and the overseas departments and territories) selecting rewards can have them delivered after the harvest. Participants from other countries, are invited to select rewards, and collect them either at a Wine Expo or come visit us directly at the Domaine.</p> <p>Please consider the option of collecting your wine at an Expo.
