JUL 30 - AUG 03
FESTIVAL GEWURZTRAMINER, ALSACE
ALZACE is maybe the most beautiful Wine Tourism region in France.
It is regarded as well to be the oldest site to cultivate vineyards in France (since over 3 000 years).
Alzatian villages and their typical houses, surrounded by picturesques Vosges, are customarily covered with flowers and look more like a candy. While the wines (mostly whites), are regarded as the best in the world of their type (Riesling. Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer, vendanges tardives, selection grains nobles).
Over the past 50 years, the Alsace Wine Route has contributed to the success of Alsace wines. It has become famous the world over for its exceptional natural beauty, its simple course and for the instant connection its visitors feel with the region and its growers. The Alsace Wine Route winds its way from north to south, for more than 170 kilometres (106 miles) along the eastern foothills of the Vosges. This delightful itinerary leads visitors across rows of undulating, vine-covered hills, and through quaint villages with narrow streets and charming flower-decked houses clustered around the local church steeple.

ALZACE & JURA
ALSACE is maybe the most beautiful Wine Tourism region in France.

The villages, surrounded by picturesques Vosges, are always covered with flowers and look like a candy. While the wine (whites only) are regarded as the best in the world of their type (riesling. pinot gris, gewurztraminer, vendanges tardives, selection grains nobles).
Jura, not as popular as Alsace, apart of most beautiful scenery offers its absolute specialities and world's hits like Vin Jaune, Vin de Paille, as well as famous Comté hard cheese.
Traditional song of Alsace winemakers & growers:
Dieu n'a pas voulu,
que le noble se perde,
c'est pourquoi il ne nous donne que la vigne,
mais également la noble soif.
que le noble se perde,
c'est pourquoi il ne nous donne que la vigne,
mais également la noble soif.

BOURGOGNE
Bourgogne, is the unique place all over the world where one may find at the same time & at the same place:
* greatest wines of the world
* greatest gastronomy of the world
* greatest historical monuments of our
contemporary, mediterranean civilization
As they say in Bourgogne:
bon appetit, et ... grand soif
In the magic world of wines, there are only two names which really counts.
These are: Bordeaux and Bourgogne
Both of them are in France, however they are totally different one from the other, not only because of their size (Bourgogne is much smaller), but as well following the fact that they are using totally different grapes for the wines production processes. In Burgundy these are pinot noir, for red wines and chardonnay for white wines, while all wines are mono-cépage.
FOTO SERVICE
CHAMPAGNE
Both, Champagne, as well as champagne are exciting, plenty of secrets and magic.
Apart of Les Maisons de Champagne like Moët Chandon, Veuve Clicquot, Tattinger etc., which practically monopolised the export market, one may find in this friendly and rustical Champagne something really exceptional.
These are almost 14 000 RM (Recoltant Manipulant). RM is an idependent winemaker (or rather champagnemaker) who is producing the wine following its family oldest rules and traditions. Usually these are small, family owned operations.
The real secret of Champagne is to meet these people, to have a chat, as well as a flûte d'amitié, in order to make best friends.
FRIULI VENEZIA GIULIA
Very unique region, known for the production of best, white wines of Italy, wonderful landscapes as well as centuries long SlowFood traditions. Not to forget amazing hospitality of the Friulians, who apart of the fact, that they like to write romantic poems, speak a different language from Italian.
