The wine produced was purchased by dealers.<br \/>\nIt was Alphonse, the family patriarch, who, around 1970, steered the business toward direct marketing and gradually increased the land holdings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 1982, following his studies at the technical institute for wine-growing in Beaune, Maurice teamed up with his father and put into practice the knowledge he had acquired in school.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 1988, he took over the winery, which has continued to flourish, built a new wine cellar, and renovated and updated the infrastructure to better meet his needs. Today, the vineyard stands on 9 hectares (22 acres) straddling the townships of Dahlenheim and Avolsheim.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Our vineyard<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Our vineyard covers just over 10 hectares (22 acres) extending across two townships: Dahlenheim and Avolsheim.

This is his approach to caring for his vines and he is passionate about his wine-making, all the while showing the utmost respect for Mother Nature and the environment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The combination of these characteristics translates into wines that are tangy, supple and full-bodied, that maintain a fine balance and are our pride and joy.
