Outside of Champagne (240km to the west), it is the dominant French sparkling wine appellation, with more than half of all crémant production.

These influences are the result of a back-and-forth between the German and French sovereignties over the last few centuries.

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.
