U. K. B. G. GUIDE TO DRINKS
The name "Gentil" or "Zwicker" and "Edels-
wicker"is used when the wine is made from a
blend of different varieties of grapes.
Sometimes the name of the town or village is associated
with the wine. Thus we get Traminer de Riquewihr or
Riesling de Kayserberg, etc.
The area produces mostly white wines, but it does also
produce a small amount of red, rose and sparkhng wines
