Domaine Zinck
ドメーヌ・ザンク
Biodynamic Eguisheim estate spanning four Alsace Grand Crus.
Founded in 1964 by Paul Zinck with just 2.5 hectares near Eguisheim, this family estate is now run by his son Philippe and wife Pascale, who have expanded it to over 20 hectares across Eguisheim and Gueberschwihr. The domaine farmed organically from 2011 and became certified organic and biodynamic (Ecocert and Demeter) in 2021. Its vineyard holdings include the Grand Cru sites of Eichberg (clay-limestone), Pfersigberg (sandy-marl), and Goldert (sandy-limestone); it also bottles a Grand Cru Rangen cuvee from purchased grapes grown on the steep volcanic slopes of Alsace's southernmost Grand Cru, since it owns no vines there itself. Philippe Zinck sees himself as a caretaker of the soil, crafting pure, mineral, terroir-driven wines using a mix of traditional oak foudres and stainless steel.
