Southwest of Eguisheim, the Grand Cru Eichberg stretches over two gentle slopes southeast exposed, at an altitude between 220 and 340 metres. Below the three castles, this vineyard at the northern edge of the Rouffach fracture zone, is sheltered by the Vosges foothills. This site enjoys a particularly dry and warm microclimate, with the lowest rainfall recorded in the Colmar region.
The subsoil consists mainly of Tertiary conglomerates and marls. The boulders of limestone are less frequent here than those of Vosges sandstone and even some granite boulders at the east rim of the vineyard. Moreover, Quaternary talus slope partly covers the conglomerates. They make a clayey soil with sandstone rubble, becoming calcareous with increasing depth.argileux, riche en cailloutis.
