Closer to home
Clément, born in 1942, naturally took the path of viticulture. After obtaining his school certificate, he worked on the estate.
During the winter, he took advanced courses at the Rouffach agricultural school, after which he graduated in 1958.
In August 1971, he married Jacqueline, the daughter of a winegrower from Ingersheim.
A forward-thinking and very tenacious man, Clément decided to abandon mixed farming to devote himself exclusively to winegrowing. In 1973, the entire harvest was bottled at the estate.
Naturally, the couple shared the tasks of the estate: Clément was in charge of the vineyard and cellar work. In addition to the work in the vineyards, Jacqueline was in charge of the sales in the cellar and the accounting, making sure our customers were always given a warm and generous welcome.
Their union produced two children, Matthieu in 1972 and Christine in 1978.
In 1995, Matthieu joined the company after obtaining a diploma in viticulture and oenology in Rouffach and a higher diploma in wine and spirits marketing.
With internships in Argentina and California, Matthieu brings his youth and originality to the estate.
In 2000, he married Isabelle, a nurse, who helped him during his commercial trips. Matthis, their son, was born in February 2005 (the succession seems assured as he entered the Rouffach Wine School in 2020).
