Wines made from Auxerrois grapes of Luzern
Discover the best wines made with Auxerrois as a single variety or as a blend of Luzern.
Rich, round whites with tender mouth and moderate acidity, featuring aromas of ripe yellow fruits, white flowers, subtle honey, fresh almond and brioche notes. Often blended with Pinot Blanc in Alsace (cuvées labelled "Pinot Blanc" often contain a good proportion) and a pillar of Crémant d'Alsace. Also in French and Luxembourgish Moselle, Côtes-de-Toul and Baden. Lorraine grape, a Pinot Noir × Gouais Blanc cross, half-sibling of Chardonnay.
Wine canton of central Switzerland on Lake Lucerne, a young vineyard in full expansion (×10 in 40 years). Pioneer of PIWI resistant varieties (42% of the vineyard): taut Solaris white (citrus, green apple, white flowers), ample Souvignier Gris (peach, honey), dense Divico red (black cherry, blackberry, spices). Fine and silky Pinot Noir (cherry, raspberry, undergrowth) complements. Tempered lake climate — young, fresh and eco-responsible wines.
