Felix Meyer’s grandfather founded the domaine in the late 19th century. He took over the domaine in 2005 and has modernized the winery and continued to expand the family’s vineyard holdings to include some grand cru vineyards in Alsace, all while staying in touch with tradition and respecting the terroir. Felix is a master blender and skilled winemaker; he blends wine from different parcels and ages his wines on the fine lees in old foudres, as was the tradition in Alsace. 

Félix uses no synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides to treat the vines. Cover crops are planted in every other row in the vineyards. Some vineyards are plowed, but certain parcels can be plowed only once a year because any more would erode the soils. He treats the grapes with the same individualized care, harvesting by hand and gently loading them into the press. The use of native yeasts during fermentation makes the process longer and slower, creating a more lush texture.
