At the foot of the majestic Schlossberg hill, in a setting of vines and roses, the Domaine Weinbach “wine stream”, named after the small stream that crosses it, was built in 1612 by the Capuchin monks.
Sold as national property during the French Revolution, the Estate was acquired in 1898 by the Faller brothers who passed it on to their son and nephew Théo. A great figure in the Alsatian vineyard and ardent promoter of its recognition as an Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée, Théo Faller works for the quality of Alsace wines and the promotion of their incomparable terroirs and grape varieties. In love with his property, he developed it, enlarged it and embellished it.
From 1979, his wife Colette and his daughters Catherine and Laurence demonstrated the same passion for the great wines of Alsace and the same unfailing attachment to quality.
Since 2016, Catherine Faller has managed the Domaine with her sons Eddy and Théo.
