Tucked between the Vosges Mountains and the Rhine River, Alsace is where France flirts with Germany — on a wine map, at least. This region is a powerhouse for aromatic whites, featuring bone-dry Riesling, ultra-expressive Gewürztraminer, and a surprise standout: Pinot Noir that actually over-delivers.
Our updated map lays out all 51 Grand Cru vineyards (because yes, you do want to know them), along with the quaint villages along the Alsace Wine Route. From the slopes of Schlossberg to the hills of Hengst, you'll see exactly where the magic happens, whether you're chasing flinty minerality or rich, honeyed depth.
Alsace is a lesson in terroir, with wines that reflect tiny shifts in soil and elevation. It's also one of the few places in France where grapes proudly make it on the label (because when you've got it, flaunt it). Consider this your passport to exploring one of France's most underrated, overachieving wine regions.
