The Mosbachs have been winegrowers since 1577. At the head of this 23 ha estate, Jean-Marie and Paul perpetuate the family tradition. Their vineyard is south facing and benefits from all the conditions that are favorable for an early flowering of the vine and a slow maturation of the grapes. The reputation of this domain is made on the pinot noirs vinified in red and in rosé. A visit to their cellar, with a capacity of 3,500 hectoliters, is worthwhile, as you will notice some beautiful oak barrels from the ^19th century.

The estate is located in an old mill, named Thomanns Muehle. Today, it cultivates 35 hectares of vines, part of which are located on the Grand Cru Steinklotz terroir, which is clay-limestone and south-facing, and warms up very quickly in spring. We practice here the reasoned viticulture, the wine making is done in stainless steel tanks, but some vintages are raised in the famous wooden tuns of the Cellar of the Civil Hospices of Strasbourg. All the Alsatian grape varieties are vinified here, as well as crémants whose reputation is well established.

At Arthur Metz, crémant is king: the house devotes more than 50% of its activity to it. Yes, there are several varieties of this sparkling wine that goes so well with desserts... Made from chardonnay, riesling, pinot noir vinified into rosé or white, their quality is recognized. That said, Arthur Metz also sees its so-called still wines regularly win awards and medals at prestigious competitions. The tasting, in the sales area, allows you to choose the wines that suit you best.
