The Legacy of François Schwach and Success in Winemaking for Three Generations
From Passion to Production, the Story of Successful Winemaking in Alsace
François Schwach founded this estate back in 1950 in the heart of the beautiful Alsace region. François gave up his office job to pursue his passion for winemaking. He sold his first vintage in 1960, and the vineyard has continued to produce beautiful wines since. In 1975, Philippe acquired the company’s management and expanded the estate by purchasing new plots and making investments in the company’s modernization.
