Bergheim is located where the most beautiful wine country begins. Of course, good wine is produced in the Lower Rhine made by wine-growers who are no less clever than their Upper Rhine counterparts.
However the area around Bergheim is where the soil increasingly leaves its mark on the grapes that grow there. And the term "Grand Cru d'Alsace" or "Alsatian Vintage" takes on its true meaning.
The wines produced here are of natural distinction made from the grapes of vineyards perched majestically up on the hillsides, leaves sparkling in the wind blowing up from the plains.
A subtle and delicate fragrance drifts here among the vestiges of the medieval wall. Wine connoisseurs never miss the town of Bergheim and the neighboring village of Rorschwihr in their search for bottled bliss.
