Overview

Maison ZEYSSOLFF is one of the few cellars in Alsace with around twenty hundred-year-old oak casks, each with a capacity of 10, 000L, still used for the vinification of its wines. His great curiosity is the ZEYSSOLFF barrel, made in 1897 for the Universal Exhibition in Paris (1900). This barrel is still in use today.

The immersive experience with projections on thunderbolts and sound work is unique in France.

Children are welcome during the visit, it is suitable for everyone.

Admission to the gingerbread palace is offered to you and you will leave with a small bottle of mulled wine made by the House!

The majority of our wines are labeled organic.

Inclusions

  • Snacks - Kougelhopf (typical Alsatian brioche)
  • Free entry to the Gingerbread Palace (just in front of the estate)
  • Alcoholic Beverages - Tasting of 5 Alsace wines from the House and a small bottle of mulled wine to take away

What to expect

I welcome you to the cellar, where we will begin tasting our wines, most of which are labeled organic. We will enjoy an explanatory video on the production of Alsace wines (suitable for children).

I then take you to visit the family cellar dating from 1850, and discover the century-old oak barrels, which we still use to vinify our wines. We have a scenographic space within the cellar with immersive 180° video projected on barrels - unique in France. It's a film about my rather rich personal history, and about my working philosophy. All projected in the cellar, on century-old oak barrels (mapping on certain sequences) with sound work, allowing the public to find themselves in total immersion in my story.

We will end the tasting in the wine-shop area with a portion of kougelhopf (typical Alsatian cake). A guide is at your disposal throughout the visit to discuss and answer your questions. You will leave with a 37.5cl bottle of mulled wine and an entry to visit the "Gingerbread Palace".

We visited on a wine tour with Paul and his VW bus (be sure and check that out). It was one of the best tasting experiences we have had. The wine was delicious (we purchased a half case to send home), and the host was witty and fun. We could have stayed all day. The cellar is beautiful, with some...
