Edelzwicker
November 5, 2010
Edelzwicker [pronounced the same way you read it] wines are from the North-Eastern French region of Alsace [Ahl-zass]. If we breakdown the name, we can see that Edel=noble and Zwicker=mixture, basically meaning that the wine is a blend of the noble grapes traditionally found in the region i.e. Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer, Riesling or Pinot Blanc. The wines are normally light, dry and best consumed young with fish and cheese dishes.
