Domaine Achillée
(Cantina in Alsazia)
Recensioni
Great experience - 100% recommended!
The wines themselves were very good, and the staff was actively asking our preferences and would give us some wine to taste depending on what we like the most (sweeter, drier, etc.). It really made the experience more special!
I would definitely recommend the activity if you're in the area. 10/10 :)

Visit the largest straw building in Europe
Achillée is a project initiated by the Dietrich family. It all began in 1990, when Yves, the father, took over
Yves, the father, took over the vineyard from his family and in-laws and thus exploited 4.5 ha of vines. This was followed by a phase of developement to finally work on 18.5 ha of vines and 6 ha of fruit trees, cherries, plums and mirabelles.
In 1999, Yves converted the farm to organic agriculture, then to biodynamic agriculture in 2003. He is then a grape supplier for a cooperative cellar. Becoming eager to control all the links of the chain, he decided to make his own wines. In 2016, he founded with his two sons Jean and Pierre, a bioclimatic cellar in association with the domain Jean-Paul Schmitt. Achillée was born!

tasting. We also have the chance to make terroir expressions on five different types of soils. Sometimes blended and sometimes vinified separate to really show the expression of the soil. All our wines are made with all the Alsatian grape varieties.
