The Van Volxem Estate is located in the historic center of Wiltingen on the Saar River. The estate's vineyards were originally planted by the Romans in the 3rd century, on the Saar’s finest slate sites. Rediscovered in the 11th century by monks, the estate's vineyards eventually became part of a monastic cellar under the Jesuit order in the 17th century.
Following the French Revolution, the property was secularized and eventually came into the possession of Gustav van Volxem, a brewer who had emigrated from Brussels. The visionary van Volxem recognized the potential of the prime vineyard sites and, over the years, transformed it into one of the most renowned wineries in the German Empire.
Considered one of the oldest vineyards in Corsica, Domaine Comte Abbatucci now spans 21 hectares of granite sand hillsides in the heart of the Taravo Valley in southern Corsica, at an altitude of approximately 150 meters.
Driven by the desire to offer the quintessence of each grape variety in its ampelographic collection—initiated by Antoine Abbatucci, father of Jean-Charles—this Corsican wine estate is constantly evolving, relying on a strong commitment to research and innovation.
