standout eleventh-generation Alsace producer

about the Cattin’s family history in Alsace goes back to 1720 when François Cattin moved there from Switzerland. In the late nineteenth century, Joseph Cattin led the fight against phylloxera to recover the region’s grape-growing traditions. Now into the eleventh generation, the family continues the winemaking tradition started 300 years ago, with sustainable practices to continue into future generations. The wines are very good value.
