Gustave Lorentz was founded in 1836, but the Lorentz family's wine history dates back to the mid-17th century. Jean-Georges Lorentz, blacksmith and wine grower, was the first family member to settle in Bergheim in the heart of Alsace in 1748. “One family, one village and seven generations of winegrowers” is today the slogan of the Gustave Lorentz winery.
Georges Lorentz has been in charge since 1995 and the eighth generation - his three daughters - is preparing to join the company. Gustave Lorentz owns a total of 33 hectares of vineyards on the hillsides around Bergheim. Of the 33 hectares, just under half is classified as Grand Cru. Since taking office, Georges has implemented a number of modern insights. In addition to quality, the focus is also on balance, purity, personality and drinkability. Sustainability is of crucial importance to Georges. Since 2012, all our own vineyards have been certified organic by EcoCert.
