Wine map of Alsace showing the region’s wine growing areas according to their A.O.C. classification and the course of the famous Route des Vins, plus a list of Grands Crus and an inset with geological information.

The map covers the southern slopes of the Vosges Mountains between Strasbourg and Mulhouse, with an inset for showing the northern vineyards near Wissembourg. Colouring distinguishes the Alsace Grand Cru vineyards, all cross-referenced to a list their names, from the more general AOC Alsace. Road network highlights the course of the region’s famous Route des Vins. Within the Vosges Mountains contour lines and spot heights indicate the topography. Map legend for the geological inset is in French only. For other information see below:

The map is available in two editions, both with the same mapping and additional information but with different colouring:

IGN edition (this title): has coloring of the surrounding countryside including the Vosges mountains in shades of green with the vineyards in stronger colours. A.O.C. Klevener de Heiligenstein is not listed in the legend although it is shown on the map. Main map legend includes English.

Editions Benoit edition: has coloring of the surrounding countryside including the Vosges mountains in shades of brown and beige, with the vineyards in slightly paler colours than on the IGN version. A.O.C. Klevener de Heiligenstein is listed separately in the legend. Main map legend is only in French.

Wall map edition: a flat version of the Editions Benoit map.
