Alsace is a cultural and historical region in eastern France, on the western bank of the Rhine on the border with Germany and Switzerland.

From 1982 to 2016, Alsace was the smallest administrative district in France, consisting of the Bas-Rhin and Haut-Rhin districts. The territorial reform adopted by the French legislature in 2014 led to the merger of the Alsace administrative district with Champagne-Ardenne and Lorraine, forming the Grand Est.

The words that most accurately express Alsace's guilty nature are "dry riesling". The wines from there radically change the concept of traditionally sweet riesling. In addition to Riesling, other traditional varieties are Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Gewurztraminer and Kremant D'Elsas. Typical of Alsace wines are the strong aromas of flowers and peaches. They have a brilliant acidity, rich texture and moderate alcohol. Typically, Alsace producers do not let wines mature in oak, which gives heavier flavors to spices. Instead, they prefer the natural balance and maturation of the wine to complement the fresh aroma.

The Alsace wine region is fully governed by the AOC appelations Act: everything from which varieties are allowed to be grown to to distances between the vineyards from one another. In this aspect, Alsace is divided into 3 parts: Alsace AOC (92% with table wines), Crémant d'Alsace AOC (sparkling white and rose wines), Alsace Grand Cru AOC (limited wines from special vines).

The Alsace climate is favorable, semi-continental. Mostly sunny weather prevails, on most days it is dry and hot. Situated at the foot of the Vosges Mountains, the vineyards are in a shady rain and are well exposed to the sun, which helps slow the ripening of the grape varieties grown there.

The Alsace terroir is a dream for the geologist and winemaker. Experts say that if one person walks 100 feet in each direction, they will find a different soil composition everywhere. It is also the quality that makes Alsace a complex but favorable soil mosaic unlike most other wine regions.

Grown on 13 different types of terroirs, Alsace wines offer a huge variety of flavors. Producers can harmonize their production styles and traditions with their own plots so that each grape variety and any wine created is truly an individual and pure expression of Alsace. Moreover, when it comes to minerality and freshness, here they are not just concepts, but the essence of guilt.

The superb location and abundant sunshine are in addition to the varied soil consisting of granite, limestone, shale and sandstone. It is a winning combination that allows the grapes to be matured evenly, which in turn is a precondition for magnificent wines with a rich structure, complex flavors and aromas.
