Domaine Gueth — Organic Alsace Wines in Gueberschwihr

Located in Gueberschwihr, between Colmar and Mulhouse in the heart of the Alsace wine region, Domaine Gueth has been perpetuating a family winemaking tradition for seven generations, rooted in respect for the terroir and the pursuit of authenticity.

The estate covers 8 hectares of vineyards, cultivated according to Organic Agriculture and certified High Environmental Value (HVE). The vines stretch at the foothills of the Ballons des Vosges Regional Natural Park on marl-sandstone and marl-limestone soils that give the wines their distinctive minerality and remarkable aging potential.

A family estate committed to living soils

Since 1996, Muriel Gueth, daughter of Jean-Claude and Bernadette, has been leading the estate with a clear conviction: great Alsace wine can only come from living soil.

Alongside her husband, she oversees every stage of the vineyard cycle, from vine to cellar, with a low-intervention philosophy. The wines are fermented using indigenous yeasts and no aromatic corrections, allowing the purest expression of the terroir.

This approach results in precise and expressive organic Alsace wines, fruit-driven in their youth yet capable of developing remarkable complexity over time. Each cuvée is released only once it has reached its optimal balance.

A philosophy of respect and transmission

Muriel Gueth summarizes her philosophy simply:

“My wines are a bit like my children. I guide them so they can grow and flourish, but I never force them to become something they are not.”

At Domaine Gueth, wine remains above all a story of family heritage, respect for nature, and sincerity in vineyard work.
