AOC Alsace - Grands Crus
The Ollwiller Grand Cru
Located in Wuenheim, a 10-minute walk from our estate, the Ollwiller Grand Cru faces southeast, at an altitude of between 260m and 330m.
Our wines derive their character from the fine-textured marl-sandstone soil.
Destroyed many times over, this vineyard has risen from the ashes.
The age of the vines, access to a mineral-rich limestone base, and controlled yields are wonderful factors for producing great wines from this Grand Cru.
These wines are particularly fine and elegant, with great aging potential.
The Spiegel Grand Cru
Located halfway up the hillside on the two wine-growing areas of Guebwiller and Bergholtz, the Spiegel Grand Cru has been known for over 50 years.
On a moderate slope ranging from 260m to 315m above sea level, it develops notes of dried fruit and fruit paste which, after a few years, reveal a mineral nuance.
The Zinnkoepfle Grand Cru
Zinnkoepflé means “sun mountain.”
Located in the municipalities of Westhalten and Soultzmatt, this high-altitude terroir, the highest Grand Cru in Alsace, is characterized by a Mediterranean microclimate.
Its south-west to south-east orientation allows the grapes to develop richness and overripeness while preserving their aromatic finesse.

AOC Alsace - Château Ollwiller
Château Ollwiller is located in the middle of a terroir that obtained its classification when the Grands Crus were first defined in 1983. Facing south-southeast, it enjoys long hours of sunshine, from sunrise to sunset, sheltered from the prevailing winds.
The estate is one of only two châteaux in Alsace that can sell its wine under the “Château” designation.
The exposure and geology of the estate produce wines of very high quality, with good liveliness, fruitiness, beautiful aromatics, and a minerality characteristic of Ollwiller.
It is also the château that gave its name to the Ollwiller Grand Cru.

AOC Alsace - Late Harvest
Prestigious mentions
These prestigious wines are harvested when overripe, several weeks after the end of the traditional harvest.
In addition to the identity of the grape variety and its aromatic character, they gain power from the phenomenon of concentration and the development of Botrytis Cinerea.
The berries, completely covered in noble rot, give the wines maximum concentration in terms of both aroma and sugar.
