Burton, Neel. The Concise Guide to Wine and Blind Tasting. 2nd ed. Acheron Press, 2016.
The chapter and map connect Alsace's French/German history, Vosges rain-shadow climate and varied soils with Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc/Auxerrois, Sylvaner, Muscat and Pinot Noir. It distinguishes varietal labels, Gentil/Edelzwicker blends, Cremant, and late-harvest or botrytized wines; a harvest designation alone does not settle perceived sweetness.
