The Alsace Wine Route is one of the most famous wine trails in France. It stretches 170 kilometers (105 miles) from Marlenheim in the north to Thann in the south. Established in 1953, it is the oldest wine route in France. The area is known for its white wines, especially Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Pinot Gris, and Muscat.
The Vosges Mountains are on one side, and the Rhine River is on the other. This gives the region a special climate with lots of sunshine, which helps the grapes grow. The wine is fresh, fruity, and full of flavor.
This route is not just about wine. It is also about history, culture, and beautiful scenery. The road goes through old villages, castles, and rolling vineyards. Visitors can taste wines, explore historic towns, and learn about the traditions of the region.
