In 1898, the Faller brothers bought and transformed it in a place where they expressed their passion for Alsace wines. The name itself Domaine Weinbach derives from a small water course that crosses the winery, while Weinbach was the original name of the old monastery. Today the property includes 27 hectares and it is managed by Faller’s family, because they have bequeathed from generation to generation their wines passion. The vineyards have some important geological features and they benefit by privileged exhibitions in the Kaysersberg valley.
