Alsace Wine Route Exploration: Exclusive Half-Day Journey from Strasbourg

Embark on an exclusive half-day tour to uncover the treasures of the Alsace Wine Route, one of France's most esteemed wine regions.

Journey Through the Renowned Alsace Wine Route

Set off on a captivating exploration along the Alsace Wine Route, delving into the heart of France's aromatic white wine production. This tour promises an intimate tasting experience at two distinguished wineries, where you'll learn about the key types of Alsace wine through engaging tasting sessions.

Obernai: A Historic Wine Center

Your first stop is Obernai, a picturesque town on the Wine Route, known for its historic charm, winding streets, and vibrant wine culture. As you explore Obernai, you'll uncover its rich history, from its establishment in 1240 to its pivotal role in the Décapole alliance, striving for independence from imperial authority. 

Highlights include the Saints Pierre and Paul Church, the Belfry, the Six Bucket Well, and the Sainte-Odile Fountain.

Alsace's Wine Diversity

Alsace is renowned for its aromatic white wines, including Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Muscat, and Sylvaner, among others. The region’s wines are celebrated for their aromatic intensity, purity of fruit, and precise acidity, reflecting the unique terroir of Alsace.

Protected by the Vosges Mountains, Alsace enjoys one of France’s driest climates, allowing grapes to ripen fully and develop rich flavors and aromas. During your visit to selected wineries, you'll taste these exquisite wines, gaining insights into their production, characteristics, and the reasons behind their international acclaim.

Exclusive Wine Tastings at Select Wineries

Immerse yourself in the Alsace wine tradition with visits and tastings at two carefully chosen wineries. Experience the warmth of local hospitality as you taste exquisite local white wines, often guided by the winery owners or knowledgeable staff, offering insights into the winemaking process and the unique characteristics of Alsace wines.

FAQ

    You have to be at the meeting point at least 10 minutes prior to tour departure. If you are having difficulties finding the meeting point you must call us on our office number +33 556 152 609 so that we may help you find the exact area. Please note that tours leave on time and if you are not there at the designated area and indicated time the driver/guide will leave. Please refer to our terms and conditions for more information.

    Our company uses only Mercedes Tourer Viano 8 seater minivans that are recent, comfortable and fully equipped including individual A/C, shaded windows, large leg space and on board P/A system for commentaries by the guide.
  • Who conducts these Alsace shared wine tours from Strasbourg?

    We only employ accredited and licensed tour guides that are also the drivers for all tours that need visits to be conducted by certified guides. Good examples are: the visit of museums, guided walking tours in cities, visit of historical monuments and so on.

    In some regions, where wine tours prevail (Bordeaux, Alsace) the tours are conducted by professional local guides, that are experts in Wines. The very large majority of our guides hold at minimum the WSET level 2 in wines.
  • Can we choose which winery we will visit on a shared Alsace Villages Tour?

    No, unfortunately a scheduled tour is already pre-programmed and the wineries have been (carefully) selected. If you would like to visit some specific wineries while you are staying in Strasbourg or Colmar then do not hesitate to book one of our Alsace Private Wine Tours.
  • Are the Winery Tours private in Alsace?

    During our scheduled/shared tours the visits at the wineries are not private and you may find yourself being grouped with others. Groups usually always remain in low numbers. If you are seeking a more exclusive Alsace Wine Tour then do not hesitate to book one of our private tours. We will organise a private visit just for you and your party.

    Please note that on our shared Alsace Day Trips from Strasbourg, Ophorus tours are always conducted in English during the tours or at the wineries. Unlike other providers we refuse to mix languages.
  • What type of wines are produced in the Alsace region of France?

    Alsace wines are essentially white wines. Here, the main characteristic is that Alsace wines are varietal wines. The grape varieties that are allowed are Riesling, Pinot Blanc, Auxerrois, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir (the only red grape variety), Sylvaner and Muscat. Most wines produced are dry white wines but other wines include Sparkling wines, late harvest wines or sweet wines. Then there are Grands Crus Alsace wines that make up for just 4% of the total production.
  • How many Alsace wines will I taste during this tour?

    In Alsace, there are 7 different varietal wines, sparkling wines and sweet white wines. The range is therefore quite large and depending on the wineries visited you will wine taste anything from 4 to 7 or more wines per winery. Alsace winery visits are a treat for all white wine lovers!
