Description

A workshop where you'll learn the perfect food and wine pairings for your Christmas meal with your loved ones!
The holidays are just around the corner!

Foie gras, salmon, and chocolates are the long-awaited treats on the Christmas table. We're already drooling over it. But what wine should you pair them with?

Alsace, small in size but big in treasures, is home to 7 grape varieties at the heart of its vineyards: Sylvaner, Muscat, Riesling, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, and Gewurztraminer.

To help you avoid the stress of preparations, Domaine Schneider offers a workshop where you'll learn how to choose the right wine to accompany the menu of the famous holiday meal, from aperitif to dessert. Discover how Alsatian wines go perfectly with the traditional Christmas menu!

On the menu: 5 holiday classics such as foie gras, salmon, chocolate, ... (subject to availability from our suppliers) and our wines, which you can try to find the perfect pairing for your meal, thanks to our advice and experience.

David is a passionate and innovative winemaker who is part of today's winemakers. He creates wines in his own image, fine and subtle, balanced, whose multiple flavors are revealed sip after sip, a blend of tradition and modernity.

At the end of this experience led by Marie-Joëlle and Emilie, you can buy your favorite wines, which you'll no doubt use to delight your loved ones at Christmas, at the table or under the tree!

Don't hesitate and meet us in the heart of the Alsatian vineyard, at the Domaine Schneider cellar in Gertwiller. We're already looking forward to welcoming you for a friendly Advent experience!
