Alsazia
Alsace is a wine region located in the north-eastern part of France, between the Vosges mountains and the German border, marked by the Rhine river. The presence of the Vosges mountain range contributes decisively to defining the climatic characteristics, protecting the area from the winds from the west and thinning rainy phenomena. Alsace differs from the rest of France by an ubiquitous German culture which dictates architectural styles and even influences the production of wine. It is therefore not surprising that mostly white wines are produced with vines such as Riesling or Gewürztraminer at the center.
Here, Pinot Gris which in other French regions is relegated to assembly varieties, takes on a noble and important connotation. There is also a share of sweet wines that differ in sugar residue and of which the highest quality is highlighted through the mentions Vendanges Tardives and Selection de Grains Nobles.
