Alsace
France's smallest region at 190 kms by just
50kms at its widest point, has
warm summers,
cold winters and low rainfall. The lee of two mountain ranges, numerous natural lakes and a major river network provide abundant fish, fruit, cereal crops and dairy produce. Alsace is also France's main brewer and a major white wine producer. Shared
borders and history spanning over 800 years with
Germany to the north and Switzerland to the east, have shaped this region's unique fusion cuisine.
