His great curiosity is the ZEYSSOLFF barrel, made in 1897 for the Universal Exhibition in Paris (1900). By appointment, Maison ZEYSSOLFF offers you a complete guided tour of its premises, from the making of the wine, from the cellar to the bottle. A commented tasting of the estate’s wines accompanied by a part of kougelhopf (Alsatian brioche) will awaken your taste buds …

This year, following the organic conversion of our estate, we are renovating our cellar and taking advantage of this new setting to offer our future visitors a new activity.
This film is not a remake of what we can find so far in the story of the work of the vineyard. But a film about our rather rich personal history, and our working philosophy. All of this is projected in the cellar, on hundred-year-old oak barrels at 180 °, allowing the public to be completely immersed in our history.

Recommended visit!! - The view was very interesting, we did the tour in English as we both don't know French. The guide explained to us in great detail many aspects of their production with very fluent and fluent English. We concluded the visit with the purchase of bottles of their production, sold at very honest prices. Very recommended!!

Nice guy our guide... - Nice guy our guide Arthur. Whole tour was a bit short. And almost half of it was about the place's history. I would like more about the actual winery part. It is more exciting if you are new to the wine world but a little boring to those who have a greater level already. At any case it is a positive experience

Watch videos at a wine cellar? NO Thanks! - No idea why it's highly rated.....came here as part of a Viking Cruise optional excursion. Was given 5 wines to taste and shown 2 fifteen minute videos - seats were these hard chairs that people were squirming in....I got so impatient I went across the street to the gingerbread museum during the video. I could have watched the videos on youtube. I have never been to a wine tasting presentation like this before.
