On the programme

Discovery of the vineyard followed by a visit to the cellar and tasting. An original and friendly way to discover Alsace wines with family or friends!

The Domaine Schoenheitz has been involved in wine tourism for 20 years and offers different formulas throughout the year for all lovers of Alsace wines. A discovery farm, member of the diVINes d'Alsace and Slow Food 68, the estate has been awarded the "Vignobles et Découvertes", "Cave de Noël", "Alsace Ecotourisme" and "Organic Agriculture" labels.

Every summer, we offer you a walking tour on the slopes of Wihr-au-Val. We take you to the middle of our land to explain the vegetative cycle of the vine, the work of the winegrower and the history of this century-old vineyard.

Meet at 9:30 am at the Domaine Schoenheitz. From there, go to the 15th century Saint Michel ossuary chapel and discover all the charms of this village with a thousand legends. From the top of the Herrenreben, enjoy the breathtaking view of the valley, breathe in the scent of the flora and learn how we work. On the way back to the village, you will see the 19th century church of St. Martin.

At around 11am, return to the cool of the cellar. While following the path of the grapes during the harvest, discover what is hidden behind the words "pneumatic press, stainless steel tank or alcoholic fermentation, ...".

Finally, the tour ends with the tasting of several wines; dry, sweet, sparkling or red, here again, you will be guided to better understand Alsace wines.

The tour is available in French and English.

Lovely tour, with experienced guide

Commenté le 02/08/2023

We joined he english tour. Boston used to be sommelier and is a passionate wine maker and story-teller. Schoenheitz is a small but great vineyard to visit. They still embrace the complete process from growing the grapes to botteling. Thanks for the entertainment.
