Alsace

**Alsace** — a distinctive wine region in northeastern France, tucked between the Vosges mountains and the Rhine along the German border. Its history has shuffled between France and Germany, and this shows in both its grapes and its tall, flute-shaped bottles. **Wines & grapes** — Alsace is above all a white-wine region, and unusually for France it labels most wines by grape. Riesling and Gewürztraminer are the flagships, joined by Pinot Gris, Muscat and Pinot Blanc, with Pinot Noir the main red. It also makes fine sparkling Crémant d'Alsace. **Character** — The Vosges shelter the vineyards from rain, making this one of France's driest and sunniest areas. The wines are aromatic and full-flavoured, ranging from bracingly dry to richly sweet late-harvest styles. **Good to know** — Fifty-one Grand Cru vineyards mark its finest sites.
