The wine region of Alsace
Alsace, located in the extreme north-east of France, is Distinguished from other French wine regions by its strong Franco-Germanic influences. These influences are the result of a back-and-forth between the German and French sovereignties over the last few centuries. They can be seen not only in the architecture and culture of Alsace, but also in the wines. Alsace wines are produced under three main appellations: Alsace and Alsace Grand Cru for still white wines (Sweet and Dry), and Crémant d'Alsace for Sparkling wines.
The word of the wine: Astringency
Chemical stimulation that tightens the mucous membranes of the mouth and causes a sensation of harshness, which is characteristic of the presence of tannins. With time, the tannins lose their harshness and become softer.
