About the Winery:

The winery was founded in 1612 by Capuchin friars at the base of the Schlossberg hill (now rated as a Grand Cru vineyard, with rich granite soils, for Reisling, Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer and Muscat). The winery was purchased by the Faller family in 1898. Since 1979 the winery has been run by the women of the Faller family first by mother Colette and later by daughters Laurence and Catherine Faller. Laurence started using biodynamic principles (organic methods seek to support plant and soil health in conjunction with natural cycles) in 1998 on 8 hectares of the estate. Since 2005 all of the Domaine's 28 hectares have been farmed biodynamically.
