Alsace, a captivating region in northeastern France, produces German-style wines due to its historical ties to Germany and its unique geographic location. Situated on the border between France and Germany, Alsace's winemaking practices reflect a fusion of French elegance and German precision.

During the Middle Ages, Alsace thrived as a wine-producing region under the meticulous care of Cistercian monks. Single-varietal wines are a hallmark of Alsace, allowing the distinct characteristics of each grape variety to shine. Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, and Sylvaner are prominent grape varieties cultivated in Alsace.

Alsatian wines are known for their purity, complexity, and aging potential. With a cool climate, long growing season, and ample sunshine, Alsace provides ideal conditions for aromatic grape varieties. Crisp acidity, vibrant fruit flavors, and a pronounced mineral character define Alsatian wines, reminiscent of their German counterparts.

Terroir, the influence of soil, climate, and topography, plays a significant role in Alsace's winemaking. Diverse soils including limestone, sandstone, granite, and volcanic soils contribute to the rich tapestry of flavors and aromas in the wines.

Alsatian winemakers uphold tradition and terroir, preserving authenticity. The iconic "Alsace bottle," a tall, slender flute, showcases the wines' individuality while supporting graceful aging.

From the remarkable aging potential of Riesling to the opulence of Gewürztraminer and the versatility of Pinot Gris, Alsace offers a captivating wine experience. Its German-style wines capture the essence of its history, blending French finesse with German precision.

It might be surprising to hear, but there are some dogs who enjoy the taste of expensive wine just as much as their human counterparts. One such dog is a very handsome King Charles Cavalier named Figgy. Figgy has developed a refined palate and can often be found sneaking a sip or two of the expensive Bordeaux or White Burgundy when no one is looking. His love of wine has earned him a reputation among the elite circles (Cavaliers of London Facebook Group) and he is known to spend most of his day in the ‘Aladdins cave’ of Russel Square, Albion Wine Shippers, greeting friendly customers. While some may find it odd for a dog to enjoy such a luxury, figgy sees it as just another perk of his high-class lifestyle. Come in and say hi!

Disclaimer: this is completely satirical and we do not allow figgy to drink wine.

‘If there was a wine store in Harry Potter's Diagon Alley, it would look like this.
Piled high with excellent, and sometimes obscure wines. Helpful. A true Alladin's Cave. They do deliveries at a very reasonable rate, however that would remove the joy of rummaging through the stock in this wonderful hidden corner of London.’

The double bank holidays are just around the corner and it’s time to stock up your wine racks 🍷 🎊
