Since officially joining the domaine, he has been striving to put his own stamp on the vineyard, but always with the good advice and experience of his parents.Michel knows the Gueberschwihr vineyard like the back of his hand, and he passes it on to Patrick. Patrick is fortunate in that his mother Annie is trained in office work, so she takes on this role on a daily basis. After many years in the business, Annie has a wealth of wine knowledge, which is why she is also happy to receive customers in the cellar and also represents the estate at wine fairs, etc.Ann-Sophie moved from Hørsholm (Denmark) to Gueberschwihr in 2018.
