Alsace: Cave de Turckheim: big French co-ops part 2

Riesling Brand from
www.cave-turckheim.com
Continuing this compelling mini-mini-series on large but good French co-op wineries and their wines, which I started with this post: Rhône: Cave de Tain: big co-ops part 1... Cave de Turckheim was founded post-War and is a substantial vineyard owner in the must-tour region of Alsace nestling on France's eastern border with Germany, separated by the River Rhein yet sharing grape varieties and a long mutual history (not always a happy one) and aspects of culture (the hearty local food springs to mind).
