Country: France, AlsaceGrapes: RieslingABV: 12%Style: Sweet and Fortified'Vendange Tardive' or late harvest is a particular wine classification in Alsace where the grapes are left on the vine for as long as possible to dehydrate and concentrate the sugars and aromatics.

Country: France, AlsaceGrapes: RieslingABV: 14.5%Style: Aromatic Floral WhiteTrimbach’s Geisberg Riesling is one of the jewels in this ancient house’s crown. Geisberg is one of the smallest of Alsace’s Grand Cru vineyards and is famed for producing fine, fresh and long-lived Rieslings. Geisberg is a steeply sloping vineyard which rises to 320m (1050ft) above sea level but as it is south-facing, the coolness of the altitude is offset an abundant sunshine. Combined with a unique phenomenon called the "Tahlwendala", an overnight local wind which helps cool the grapes overn -
