Arthur Metz
アーサー・メッツ
A leading Alsace négociant and master of Crémant d'Alsace since 1904.
Founded in 1904 in Epfig and headquartered in Marlenheim at the northern gateway to the Alsace Wine Route, Arthur Metz is one of the largest négociant houses in Alsace and a leading producer of Crémant d'Alsace. The company owns only around 10 hectares of vineyards outright but works closely with roughly 460 partner growers across some 1,050 hectares throughout the Alsace vineyard, including 15 Grand Cru sites. In 1997 Arthur Metz merged with the Laugel family estate, also based in Marlenheim, further strengthening its position as a major Alsace producer-merchant. The house combines traditional Alsace winemaking with sustainable viticulture practices and produces a full range of varietal wines (Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Noir) alongside its flagship Crémant d'Alsace cuvées.
