Top 10 Grands Crus d’Alsace
Posted: Sat Jul 12, 2025 3:35 am
The Grands Crus d’Alsace are almost always white grape varieties, with the grape variety named on the label: gewurztraminer, muscat, pinot gris or riesling. Riesling is the most successful Alsace Grand Cru grape on the market because these wines are always dry and their lively acidity accentuates it.
For us, Domaine Weinbach Riesling Alsace Grand Cru Schlossberg Cuvée Ste Catherine is an almost perfect example of an Alsace Grand Cru, combining mineral subtlety, great concentration and length.
These wines which illustrate the greatness of Alsace Grand Cru are all either currently on the market or on the verge of appearing.
