Discover the grape variety: Exalta
Simple, fresh dry or rosé-style whites with a pale pink-copper hue, supple palate and moderate acidity, showing understated aromas of citrus and white flowers. Rustic, discreet profile. Preserved in a few ampelographic collections, it belongs to the group of ancient varieties kept for their patrimonial value and studied for their genetic interest. Rare, poorly documented grey grape variety grown in very limited quantities.

The wine region of Alsace
Capital of great French aromatic whites, most often dry and single-varietal. Straight, mineral Riesling (lemon, gunflint), opulent, exuberant Gewurztraminer (lychee, rose, spices), round, smoky Pinot Gris, floral, crisp Muscat, supple Pinot Blanc. Fine, fruity Crémants d'Alsace, exceptional sweet Vendanges Tardives and Sélection de Grains Nobles. 15,500 ha at the foot of the Vosges on varied soils, 51 Grands Crus since 1975.
The word of the wine: Table wine
Everything that is not VQPRD (European designation for all appellation wines: quality wine produced in a specific region). In principle, the bottom of the ladder. But, as in Italy a decade ago (Vino da Tavola), this category is also a refuge for wines that are out of the ordinary, whose producers refuse to accept certain grape variety or vinification dictates.
