Domaine Albert Seltz - Winery

Albert Seltz in the Young and Old Alsace Region

Before the 13th century, there were around 100 wine villages in the region, which were uprooted later because of famines and the 30 Years War. Alsace belonged to the Germans at first and later on became French. The region was divided into departments after the French Revolution, and vineyards almost doubled. The quality rules for the Grand Crus were defined in 1971, and the first Grand Cru was adopted in1975. The company had its first Grand Cru Sylvaner in 2005.

Wonderful Terroir around the Winery since Old Times

The Mittelbergheim village is the only village that grows Sylvaner Grand Cru on its clay-limestone terroir in Zotzenberg. For more than 80 years, the area truly expresses the good quality of the Sylvaner. Apart from Sylvaner, other grape varieties grown here include Auxerrois, Riesling, Pinot Noir, Gewurtztraminer, and Pinot Gris. The best grapes are handpicked out of the yield and brought to the winery for making red, white, rose, sparkling, and dessert wines.

Alsace is a Great Place for Wine Lovers

Alsace has a great terroir, and the combination of soil and the climate allows the grapes to grow ripe. The place is capable of combining its wines perfectly with food. The winemakers work in the right manner and try to leave their personal touch on the wines. Visit the estate with your friends to have a deeper taste and understanding of Alsace wines.
