Whites with many faces: mineral and taut at Chablis (lemon, green apple, flint), opulent and buttery at Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet (hazelnut, brioche, yellow fruits), tense and chalky in Champagne (Blanc de Blancs). Also vinified sparkling and widely exported (Sonoma, Margaret River, Casablanca). A Burgundian variety, a cross of Pinot Noir × Gouais Blanc, half-sibling of Aligoté.
Emblematic village of the German Mosel (Mittelmosel between Bernkastel and Piesport), named "brown mountain" in 1925 for its blue-brown slates, world-class vineyards Brauneberger Juffer and Juffer Sonnenuhr on south-facing slopes up to 80%. Signature Riesling: refined and tense with yellow peach, apricot, candied citrus, white flowers and characteristic slate mineral hints, vibrant acidity and great ageing potential — from dry Kabinett to luscious TBA.
