Hello, I’m Dominique: a winemaker at my family’s winery, a certified Palatinate Culture and Wine Expert and a Nature Resilience Trainer®!
Winemaker introducing new grape varieties:
I gained my solid knowledge of winemaking through my degree in Viticulture and Oenology in Geisenheim and further deepened it at my family winery in Kallstadt.

Since 2011, I’ve been offering not only classic wine and sparkling wine tastings but also relaxed tours through the Kallstadt vineyards, with tastings along the way.
It’s a heartfelt mission of mine to familiarize my guests with our sustainable and future-oriented fungus-resistant grape varieties – Calardis blanc, Cabernet blanc, Cabertin, Regent, and Calardis Musque are waiting to be discovered by you!
Palatinate Culture and Wine Expert:
As a certified Palatinate Culture and Wine Expert, I am your guide for authentic Palatine moments.

I offer individual and authentic wine tours – my passion extends not only to classic vineyard tours with a viticultural focus but also to thematic tours that offer insights into the Roman era with visits to the Roman winery at Weilberg or the pink spring hike during the almond blossom season.
Mindfulness and enjoyment in nature:
As a certified Nature Resilience Trainer®, I highlight even more ways to enjoy a relaxed stay in the sea of vines.

This small retreat sharpens awareness of nature, enhances the perception of the here and now and boosts enjoyment in everyday life with simple impulses and suggestions. With a keen eye, we become open to the small and large wonders along the way – enjoying the vast view over the Rhein Valley, towards the Palatinate Forest and sometimes focusing on stones, moss, vine leaves, grapes and whatever else appears. In the mindful wine and nature tour, we also take a meditative wine journey, tasting a wine intensively with all our senses.
