The Wine road Alsace

Panoramic routes, breakating views, magnificient archtiecture and delicious wine.

Alsace is a wine-growing region…a tradition that dates back to the Roman times.

But what most people don’t know is that “la Route des Vins d’Alsace” (the Wine Road in Alsace), was the first wine road to be created in France!

After the Second World War the winegrowers in Alsace got together to create something to boost the local economy.

Nowadays the road cuts Alsace from North to South and more than 60 villages and towns are part of this panoramic road.

Some of these medieval villages have received the tittle “le plus beau village en France” (the most breautiful village en France), “le village préfére des Français” (the favorite village of the French people).

Different options for you to pick and mix
