ABOUT ALSACE

 Alsatian vinegrowers have been producing wine since the Roman conquest. Alsace production is very exclusive among French production. It is easy to understand it from the name of the grape-varieties used for the production of the wine, such as Riesling, Gewurztraminer or Sylvaner. More than 90% of the wines in Alsace are white. They are all of them excellent refreshing white wines.

Semi-continental with hot summers and cold winters with frequent snowfall

SOIL

Very diverse, from sand and granite to clay and marl Volcanic soil on Rangen and Kastelberg grands crus

THE GRAPES
