THE WINE AERA

A name, a family

La Maison ZEYSSOLFF has created a “Wine Space” in Gertwiller, the village know for its production of gingerbread, Gewurztraminer, and land of the Klevener de Heiligenstein; in the Piemont des Vosges Alsaciennes. 

This was a considerable challenge for Céline and Yvan ZEYSSOLFF, winemakers and trader of fifteen years, who were spurred on by their love of Alsacian wines.

Eager to transmit their passion for wine, Céline et Yvan ZEYSSOLFF chose to create a cultural and entertaining space in the family’s original wine cellar. This space brings to life objects of the past via a contemporary decor, uniting scenography, tasting, shop and bar. 

As soon as you enter the vaulted cellar, there is a presentation about La Maison ZEYSSOLFF since 1778. You are taken back in time through the family tree (dating back to the 14th century), furniture and familial objects…

The Culture of wine

Have you ever thought of discovering the culture of wine through its cellars? During your tour, you will learn the secrets of wine production, while discovering the natural spaces where the wines of La Maison ZEYSSOLFF are cultivated. This will be followed by a tasting.

Since 2015, we offer guided tours of our cellars in french or in english. 

Nowadays, our house is no longer used only as a place of work, but also as a place of exchange where we share our knowledge of wine through our family and regional history. We want to democratize the world of wine, which is too often associated with sommeliers, by allowing everyone to walk through the door of a cellar without judgment.

We not only want to enrich our visitors culturally, but also emotionally.

Dining bar and tea room

Allow yourselves to be taken on a journey through time in our “wine bar” area, where you can find our entire wine range, accompanied by food boards of cheese, charcuterie, and soups…(open on weekends during the day). Teas, hot chocolate and cakes feature permanently on the menu.

    Immersive cellar tour

    Following Maison ZEYSSOLFF’s conversion to organic farming, we completely renovated our cellar and took advantage of this new setting to offer our future visitors a new activity: an immersive 180° video projected onto barrels—a project that is UNIQUE in France. This film is not a remake of what is currently available on the market, which tells the story of working in the vineyards… But rather a film about OUR rich personal history and OUR work philosophy.
