Alsace Grand Cru
Details
Alsace is one of the most compelling wine regions in the world: marked by great varietal diversity, distinctive Grand Cru sites, traditional architecture, and a strong culinary culture. Nonetheless, the region remains difficult to grasp for many wine professionals, not least because its best wines are available in the German-speaking market only in selected places.
Stephan Reinhardt and Sascha Speicher have known the region for many years and present a personal selection of their favourite wines. The tasting places sites, styles, and producers in context and shows why Alsace deserves particular attention for great wines of origin.
