A DYNASTY OF GROWERS

Originating from the region of Kientzheim, the Blanck family are well-known for their incredibly strong family ties and fanatical love of the land as well as a certain persistence in advancing the cause of their terrain. In 1846, Jacques-Philippe Blanck won a medal for his work as a grower.
In 1927, Paul Blanck and a handful of other growers were recognised as the driving forces behind turning the Grand Cru site, "Schlossberg" into a model vineyard.
In 1975, Marcel Blanck, his son, played a vital role at the time the Grand Cru appellation was created in Alsace. Schlossberg was the first to be assigned this appellation.
In 1985 came a new generation of winemakers: Frédéric and Philippe. Their main preoccupation is respecting the vines and the soil upon which they are planted.
The domain has increased its surface area from 24 to 36 hectares with five grands crus accounting for more than a third.
