For 400 years the Boeckel family has had its roots firmly planted in the terroir of Mittelbergheim. In 1853, Frederic Boeckel, an established winemaker from the centre of the village founded the business which is today managed by the brothers Jean-Daniel and Thomas Boeckel, who are the fifth generation. 

The vineyard extends over 23 hectares which are owned by the estate, and these are complemented by the purchase of grapes from a further 20 hectares of vines. The majority of the vines are cultivated according to organic agricultural principles, and full certification is currently in progress.
