The village

Zellenberg is a small vineyard-ringed hilltop village between Riquewihr and Ribeauvillé on the Alsace Wine Route (source: compass_artifact_wf-755602f0...). It is one of the communes on the Géovino Trail (source: Alsace Wine Route by Car – Itinerary & Map.md).

Its highly rated estates — Domaine Schneider Jean-Marc and Maison Jean Huttard — offer modern tasting rooms with bookable experiences (source: compass_artifact_wf-755602f0...). Sources disagree on which villages these estates belong to, and they likely serve a cluster of neighbouring communes; the discrepancy is noted in Alsace Wineries.

A small vineyard-ringed village wedged between two famous pearls, with modern tasting rooms worth booking. Easy to fold into a Riquewihr–Ribeauvillé loop.
