Wine and gastronomy

All year long, traditional Alsatian festivals and events represent opportunities to get together and enjoy culinary specialities and customs. Indeed, Christmas in Alsace would simply not be the same without the famous bredele, the Christmas cakes with countless shapes and flavours. And a long walk just wouldn't be complete without a tasty marcaire meal at a farm inn, including a pie of the valley together with a green salad, Munster cheese and fromage blanc tart, bilberry pie or apple pie. And Sundays would be bland and boring without Baeckeoffe (vegetable and meat stew) or traditional Alsatian-style sauerkraut. Several gastronomic trails invite you to discover this rich culinary heritage. The Fried Carp Trail is an excellent excuse for travelling all over the South of Alsace. The Sauerkraut Trail, which is more well-known, will satisfy all the lovers of this typical dish. And not to forget the Cheese Trail, which will ensure that you can serve exceptional cheeses to your guests!

This array of flavours goes very well with the wine produced by the Alsatian vineyards, whose wines offer bouquets of astounding diversity. The easiest way to discover them is to take the Alsace Wine Route.
