A mosaic of terroirs like no other!

“The Ribeauvillé-Riquewihr region is a testament to the richness of the soil, the geological complexity that, along with the whims of the sky, makes up the terroir. What a pleasure it is for a sommelier to praise the wines from such a varied terroir: their minerality, their finesse, their fruity aromas, their liveliness, their opulence.” Serge Dubs, World’s Best Sommelier 1989

Our Grands Crus

The best terroirs, the most favourable climates, often impressive slopes – these are the main titles of nobility that distinguish the Grands Crus d’Alsace family. 

However, these qualities would be nothing without the experience of the people who, decade after decade, perfect their mastery of each cru to produce noble, racy, authentic wines that bear the original imprint of their locality. In Alsace, 51 strictly delimited terroirs, protected by rigorous regulations, allow the rarest aromas to flourish: the wines produced from these terroirs benefit from the A.O.C. Alsace Grand Cru appellation.

The Ribeauvillé and Riquewihr region boasts 13 exceptional terroirs.
