Learn more about Alsace, one of the most beautiful and idyllic wine regions in France, and get inspired to start planning your next AmaWaterways water cruise today. Viva le vino!

Alsace is probably the best-known of the country’s lesser-known wine regions, but has long been considered one of the world’s greatest and most underappreciated wine regions. This strip of land is tucked in northeastern France by the German border and its top wineries have been run by the same families for almost 400 years. Today, the latest generation is determined to rejuvenate the wines and their reputation so that they will no longer be known as "the best wines you’ve never tasted."

Alsace is best known for white wines, especially dry riesling, gewürztraminer, and pinot gris, but it’s also increasingly respected for its pinot noirs. The region also produces a lovely sparkling wine, Crémant d’Alsace. Since Alsace has been passed between France and Germany for centuries, it is not entirely French or German, and its wines possess elements of each. Jean Frédéric Hugel, the 13th generation to work for Hugel & Fils, believes that the region’s biggest challenge is restoring its style. People used to know what to expect from Alsace – a dry riesling or a food-friendly gewürztraminer – but today winemakers are churning out too many quaffable, sweet wines. He also noted that while sommeliers and the wine trade already love Alsatian wines, that passion has yet to trickle down to the consumer.

Matty Colston, wine director at Chicago’s Parachute restaurant, enjoys introducing his customers to Alsatian wines because they complement the region’s hearty, rustic cuisine so beautifully. "If you’re curious about the marriage of food and wine, Alsace is mecca," he says. "The high acidity of riesling will slice right through fatty pork sausage, but sidle up nicely to the zing of sauerkraut."

Strasbourg, a town in the Alsace region with a unique blend of French and German heritage
Alsace’s capital, Strasbourg, is beloved for canals lined with half-timbered houses and window boxes overflowing with geraniums. Its historic center, built around a stunning Gothic cathedral, was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1988. Recently, the designation was extended to include the "new" town that was designed and built under the German administration between 1871 and 1918.
