Which grape varieties should be planted where, which vineyards yield great wines and which vineyards simply good: this knowledge has been carefully passed down to us from the generations before. The geological factors are the indisputable constants. Simply said, that means for us limestone or schist and sometimes both over one another.

The grapes that ripen in the vineyard must be harvested healthy and at the right point in time. It is first in the cellar that the multiple attributes are translated into wine.

My vineyards are located on plateaus, on the plain, and on slopes that descend in gentle waves.

The soils are usually rocky, but also sometimes deep. The sites are frequently sun-drenched and warm, but some are cool and shady.

Old vines are the fortune of every vintner. They root deeply and lend their intrinsic potential a persistent voice. Pinot Blanc, also locally called Weissburgunder, has a long tradition in our region. My grandfather planted most of our vines in the limestone of the Seeberg site 60 years ago. A few were even planted by my grandfather over 90 years ago. It is my duty today to continue to tell the story that the two of them began.
