Our estate is a family estate. The art of growing wine has been passed down from father to son, starting in the 18th century. Six successive generations have thus perpetuated traditions.
In the 1950s, polyculture was an important characteristic of the farm. Wine growing was only part of the activity and the wine was mostly sold to merchants, who were very eager to buy Riesling wine from our ancestors in Scherwiller.
Robert HAAG directed the business into trade with bottled wine and slowly increased the growing surface.

Half of the plants are Riesling vines.
Passion, strong belief in our profession, respect for the land and its traditions, experience and modern techniques are all elements that contribute to the best results.
This is the reason why, as wine growers, we respect vines and their environment, providing you with unique and outstanding wines.
