Founded in 1896 by Émile Willm, the brand has a long tradition of presence in America. They were distributed on the transatlantic liner France and were among the first Alsace wines distributed in North America as early as 1930.. Historically known as Domaine Alsace Willm, it benefits from Alsace's unique terroir, situated at the foot of the majestic Grand Cru Kirchberg de Barr. Over the years, the estate has remained true to Alsace's winemaking traditions, showcasing this unique terroir through its fresh, fruity and dry wines.

Un terroir exceptionnel Un terroir exceptionnel

An outstanding terroir

The various vineyards cultivated by the estate benefit from a favourable climate and varied soil composition, which contribute to the distinct character and complexity of the wines. The region's cool climate and abundant sunshine mean a longer ripening period, allowing the grapes to develop their full flavour potential. The estate's wines are varied, offering an introduction to the different facets of the Alsatian tradition, but what they all have in common is their racy character and great personality.

Award-winning wines, delighted customers

Willm's commitment to quality has not gone unnoticed. Their wines have been repeatedly acclaimed by critics and competitions around the world. This consistent quality has also been recognised by consumers, who have awarded scores of 4 stars out of 5 or more to all the different wines available on our market. Well done!

Willm comes out of its shell

Before its current success with its wines, the Willm estate was renowned for another area of expertise. Adolphe Willm had built up a reputation for his... Alsatian snails! This ancestral recipe, made from the foot of the snail cooked in white wine, was the source of the family's fame. The estate has always continued to promote local gastronomy. So it's no surprise that the estate's wines are such good matches for food.
