Wine Tour stops off in Alsace
The Wine Tour stopped off at the Sofitel Strasbourg Grande Île hotel on Monday April 3 to once again bring together chefs and wine professionals.
R
n keeping with Gault&Millau's unwavering commitment to bringing together all those involved in gastronomy, the Wine Tour brings together the region's top chefs, passionate sommeliers and wine merchants, and of course the French winemakers who best symbolize the region's wine production.
The beginnings of the Wine Tour
Because most of the restaurants selected in the Gault&Millau Guide don't have sommeliers, or don't have the time to discover new nuggets on a regular basis... Because there is no marketplace dedicated to wines or catering... Because access to restaurant wine lists is sometimes difficult for winemakers... Gault&Millau decided to bring together these two professions, undisputed players in French gastronomy.
The Wine Tour and the Trophées des Talents du Vin
Over the course of a day, chefs, sommeliers and wine merchants embark on a veritable wine journey through :
- Wine tastings selected by regional Gault&Millau ambassadors.
- Speed-dating with winemakers to deepen the tasting experience.
The day is also punctuated by the presentation of the Talents du Vin awards. The aim is to reward the most talented chefs, sommeliers and wine merchants in their region, and to shine a spotlight on their establishments by highlighting their skills and know-how.
Alsace, fourth stage of the Wine Tour
Located in the heart of Strasbourg's Grande Ile, a UNESCO World Heritage site, the hotel is Strasbourg's first 5-star hotel. Ideally located on Place St Pierre le jeune, just a stone's throw from the cathedral, the Petite France district, museums and luxury boutiques, it's the ideal setting for a romantic getaway or a family weekend in Strasbourg. This ancient Roman and medieval city, famous for its gastronomy and architecture, invites you to discover all its secrets...
