Located in Wettolsheim, just a stone’s throw away from Colmar, the domain was formed in 1985 when François Barmès and Geneviève Buecher got married and united their family plots. Now run by Geneviève and her children, Sophie and Maxime, the domain produces wines from an array of local varieties. The vines grow on terroirs whose individual personalities come through into the wine.

The Hengst terroir creates wines that are powerful, refined, structured and spiced all at the same time and the Riesling vines that grow there have been certified biodynamic since 2001. The pale yellow wine that shimmers slightly green reveals delicate aromas of green apple, citrus fruits, iodine and white flowers.
