Tradition, terroir and innovation
Château Ollwiller, one of the oldest vineyards in France, is located near Mulhouse and combines centuries-old winemaking expertise with the latest knowledge. Since 2020, the winery has been owned by the Mack family, who, with great passion and the support of Mathieu Kauffmann, are dedicated to achieving the highest quality. Thomas Mack, Managing Director of the vineyard, describes the project as ‘a family project spanning generations’. With its high-quality Rieslings, exquisite crémants and the modern wine line ALZA Le Vin, Château Ollwiller combines tradition and innovation.
Ollwiller is a Franco-German project that dissolves borders.
A vineyard steeped in tradition
The roots of Château Ollwiller go back to the 12th century. As the second oldest winery in France, it is an important part of Alsace's wine-growing heritage. After severe damage in the First World War, the castle was rebuilt in a reduced form and established itself as a first-class winery. A new era began with the acquisition by the Mack family in 2020, cwith a consistent focus on top quality.
A vision for the future
The goal is clear: Château Ollwiller aims to establish itself among the top Rieslings of Alsace. The Mack family is passionate about preserving the unique nature and rich tradition of Alsace.
The premium wines, with their fresh aromas and mineral depth, offer a successful combination of authenticity and modern style. The project impressively embodies the vision of a harmonious interaction between people and the environment, while also promoting Franco-German friendship and European cooperation.

Best season in history: more than six million visitors come to Europa-Park for the first time in 2022
In the 2022 season, for the first time in its almost-50-year history, Germany's largest theme park exceeded six million visitors, representing a significant expansion of its market leadership. Europa-Park owner Roland Mack says, “We see this record as a huge vote of confidence from our visitors, and one that comes in a difficult year in which war, supply problems, inflation and the energy crisis have been making things difficult for all of us. People are looking for leisure and balance, and the Europa-Park Resort, alongside the Rulantica water world, offers just that, which is an attractive travel destination in its own right. The beds of the hotel resort, which number approximately 5,800 hotel beds, were also often fully booked in 2022. In November, the internationally acclaimed new restaurant of the future ‘Eatrenalin’ was opened. A total of over 80 million Euros have been invested within three years.”
