Very good choice. I like Alsace wines too. Isn't it, Theobald?

What about you Carnyx? as a good French you should impress us with all your wine knowledege!!!
I'm not a connaisseur. I only drink wine with my father, he knows much more than me...

Red wines... I prefer Bordeaux to Bourgognes.

I'm not a fanatic of White Wines (what we call blanc secs here) but "sweetened" Whites (blancs moelleux) are nice.

Rosés are quite nice in summer (with ice). Some vins de pays (petits vins) are also not bad.

Gewurztraminer and Riesling (Alsace), vins jaunes (Jura), Jurançon (the Pyrenees) and vins d'Anjou are my favourites.
