The Valley of Munster is a land of tradition, where the cultivation of the vine cousins with the elaboration of the famous Munster. Today, this custom continues and has been developed with goat's cheese or mountain tomme. Taste and discuss with the winegrower about these food and wine pairings!
Discover the wine and cheese terroirs of the Munster Valley!
The domaine Schoenheitz has been involved in wine tourism for 20 years and offers different packages throughout the year for all lovers of Alsace wines. A discovery farm, member of the diVINes d'Alsace and Slow Food 68, the winery has been awarded the "Vignobles et Découvertes", "Cave de Noël", "Alsace Ecotourisme" and "Haute Valeur Environnementale" labels, and is currently undergoing organic conversion.
For this experience, we welcome you, we present you the history of this valley and its winery, then we explain you all the steps of the wine making, from the grape to the bottle of wine! In the cellar, seated around a large table, it will be time to taste and discuss wine and cheese matches.
When it's time for cheese, many people still believe that it's the ideal moment to bring out their best bottle of red wine. However, we now know that this pairing is not the most interesting: chemically, the milk proteins in cheese and the tannins in red wine are rather incompatible. With white wines, on the contrary, a balance is established between the acidity of the wine and the cheese.
From Riesling to Gewurztraminer, you will taste 5 wines that go perfectly with the cheeses selected from producers in the Munster valley.
