About this producer:
Producer of Alsatian wines for eleven generations. A family estate is located in Orschwiller, near the Château du Haut-Koenigsbourg. They produce the whole range of Alsace wines, such as Riesling or Gewurztraminer, as well as exceptional Grand Cru or late harvest wines, as well as crémants.
The origins of the domain begin with 2 families cultivating the vines since the 17th century, the Laugners in the village of Dieffenthal, and the Allimants in Saint-Hippolyte.
In 1816 and after participating in all Napoléon’s campaigns, captain François-Antoine Allimant buys more vines on the Haut-Koenigsbourg hills and a structure from 1664 in the village of Orschwiller, the current property of the domain.
As most of the families, the Allimants still lived from polyculture and chose to focus more on wine with Charles Allimant who started to bottle his wine in 1949 and developed their distribution with his daughter Mariette and her husband René Laugner.
Their eldest son Hubert took over in 1984, gave the domain the actual name and brought a lot of dynamism with his wife Françoise, and since 2013 with their son Nicolas. The family shares with pleasure this beautiful heritage of over 10 generations.
