The shop of fine bubbles

In the Bestheim area, there is also the former Heim trading house in Westhalten, whose roots go back to 1765, which joined the Westhalten cellar and then the Bennwihr cellar to create the Bestheim brand in 1997. It was in 1976 that the AOC Crémant d'Alsace was born and the Westhalten winery was one of the three pioneers and the driving force behind this appellation. Today, all Bestheim Crémants are produced on the Westhalten production site.

You will find in the Westhalten shop all our range of Wines and Cremants of Alsace. Don't hesitate to take a tour to discover and taste our different collections.

Bestheim, Westhalten.

Geoffrey, Sales Manager at Westhalten

What's your role in the Cave?

I'm responsible for sales in our Westhalten shop.

How long have you been working here?

It's been 6 years, initially at the service of the Kientzheim-Kaysersberg winery and then Bestheim after the merger of the cellars in 2015.

Your favourite wine and why?

The Pinot Gris Lieu-Dit Strangenberg because it is a harmonious wine, easy to drink as an aperitif, perfect with a good pan-fried foie gras.

Among the 4 values of the Cave (audacity, freedom, courage, ambition) which one inspires you the most?

Boldness because I subscribe to the idea of surprising (as with the Hopla range), of daring to take risks, of not hesitating to look elsewhere, of innovating, of being a forerunner.

An anecdote to share...

Believe it or not, a customer recently told me that the Crémant d'Alsace Rosé was made with red apples... I explained to him that only Pinot Noir was used in its composition, but he wouldn't listen !!!
