Alsace white wine – Riesling

Alsace Riesling wine in our shop

This is the Rhine grape par excellence! Everyone agrees that the Rhine valley is its birthplace. For some, it is the Argitis minor of the Romans, and its cultivation dates back to the Roman occupation. The name Riesling comes from riesen (to run in German) because before it was acclimatised to Alsace, it was susceptible to running. Although often cited in the 19th century, it was not until the 1960s that Riesling became Alsace’s leading grape variety.

Recognised as one of the best white grape varieties in the world, Alsace Riesling is a gastronomic wine par excellence. As well as its natural accompaniment to Alsatian cuisine (sauerkraut, matelote, smoked pork shoulder, etc.), it excels with fish, shellfish (scallops) and crustaceans. It gracefully highlights the iodised flavours of seafood. It is equally admirable with poultry, white meats and goat’s cheese.
