Alsace is an enchanting province of rolling hills, ruined castles, ancient villages, carved wooden houses, window boxes, orchards, woods and equally enchanting white wines. But they are also as robust as they are pretty: the gastronomy of Alsace is legendary and there are no better white wines to complement rich food than these, classic grape varieties vinified to maximise their fruit, aroma, freshness and depth. Ask most wine merchants and something from Alsace is liable to feature in their top 10 wines, why not give one a try and see if you agree. This short selection from Domaine Sipp Mack show just what’s best about the region.

Pinot Blanc Domaine Sipp Mack |
One of the least fragrant varieties of Alsace but a great partner to food. The gentle notes of peach and pear combine perfectly with the gentle acidity which gives a fresh, elegant finish.

Riesling Tradition - Domaine Sipp Mack |
Alsace Riesling is a much under-rated wine and this wonderful example made by Jacques Sipp is quite delicious. Green apple fruit, crunchy acidity and a fresh, lively finish. Super!

Gewurztraminer Tradition Domaine Sipp Mack |
The most well known of the Alsace wines and a great example too. Made by Jacques Sipp, the wine is full flavoured with spice notes behind the open lychee and rose aromas.

Pinot Gris Reserve Domaine Sipp Mack 2008 |
Quite delicious. Although the same grape as Pinot Grigio it is a mile away in style. Richly flavoured with smokey notes with hints of toast against the luscious, rich ripe pear fruit. Wine Spectator 92 points.

Riesling Grand Cru 'Rosacker' Domaine Sipp Mack 2007 |
One of the finest sites for Riesling in Alsace but yet little heard of. This gives a wine with some citrus notes beneath the ripe fruit flavours. Delicious now but ages well too. Wine Spectator 90 points.

Pinot Gris Vendages Tardives Cuvee Amelie - Domaine Sipp Mack 2005 |
What a wine! Rich, luscious, silky and with such pure fruit too. The creamy mouthfeel with near perfect levels of acidity makes the fruit seem to dance on the palate! Please note this is a 50cl bottle.
