Private full-day Alsace wine tour focused on Grand Cru tastings
Tastings centre on the four noble varieties: Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Muscat

Bring weather‑appropriate layers; Alsace can be cool or breezy on hillside vineyards
Eat a light snack beforehand and drink water between tastings
Be ready for pickup 10 minutes before the confirmed departure time
Additional information
Drink included: All tasting fees included
This tour is best for wine enthusiasts who want to dive deep into Alsace Grand Cru terroirs rather than sample entry‑level wines. It suits curious, open‑minded travellers who enjoy aromatic whites, late‑harvest wines, and biodynamic producers, and who appreciate taking time to understand soils, grape varieties, and styles in detail. It’s ideal for couples, small groups of friends, or seasoned tasters looking for a private, educational experience that combines top‑level tastings with the charm of Alsace’s wine villages, rather than a fast‑paced sightseeing tour.
