Food and Alsace Wine

Alsace's unique cuisine demands versatile wines:

Choucroute Garnie (Sauerkraut platter) - Riesling or Sylvaner - Cuts richness, complements fermentation

Flammekueche/Tarte Flambée - Pinot Blanc or Crémant - Light wine for light dish

Munster Cheese - Gewürztraminer - Spice meets stink beautifully

Foie Gras - Pinot Gris or late harvest wines - Richness matching richness

Asian Cuisine - Gewürztraminer with Thai/Indian - Riesling with Japanese/Chinese - Sweetness balances spice

Vegetarian/Vegan - Pinot Blanc with vegetables - Riesling with mushroom dishes - Natural wines with plant-based cuisine

Moroccan/Middle Eastern - Muscat with mezze - Pinot Gris with tagines - Gewürztraminer with spiced dishes
