Behind the Scenes: Architecture & Wine Craft - Domaine Henri Ruppert

As part of the Portes Ouvertes 2026, Domaine Henri Ruppert warmly welcomes all wine enthusiasts to a truly exceptional highlight.

On Saturday, 18 April 2026 at 10:30 AM, the winemaker himself will guide visitors through the iconic Valentiny building, renowned far beyond the Moselle region for its distinctive architectural character. During this wine-architectural tour, guests will discover how the creative vision of architect François Valentiny and the philosophy of Domaine Henri Ruppert merge to shape the estate’s unique atmosphere.

Following the tour, participants will enjoy a guided 4-wine tasting, during which selected wines are presented and discussed in detail.

The price is 29 euros per person, and the language of the tour depends on registrations received – Luxembourgish, French, English, or German.

As places are limited, advance reservation by email is strongly recommended.

In addition to this main event, the Domaine will also host an inspiring evening on Thursday, 16 April 2026 featuring a fireside talk between winemaker Henri Ruppert and architect François Valentiny, moderated by Anna Valentiny. The discussion will explore how a top winemaker and a renowned architect collaborate to create a winery defined by identity, vision, and architectural impact.

Details regarding language and entry are still being finalized. Here as well, due to limited seating, reservation via email is advisable.
