Alsace

The Alsace vineyard is located in the North East of France, and produces mainly white wines (under the Alsace and Alsace Grand Cru appellations), sparkling wines (Crémant d'Alsace appellation), as well as some rosés and reds (Alsace appellation).

Its reputation is based on wines that are sometimes powerful in terms of aromas, sugar and alcohol, notably gewurztraminer, riesling and pinot gris.

Alsace wines are essentially mono-varietal wines which give the wine its name: Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Pinot blanc, Sylvaner, Pinot noir, Muscat, Chasselas ...

Muscat d 'Alsace is made with or without a blend of three varieties of muscat: small grained white muscat, small grained pink muscat and Ottonel muscat.
