Aromatic, structured whites with a full palate and firm acidity, showing aromas of yellow fruits (peach, apricot), citrus, white flowers, honey and mineral notes reminiscent of Riesling. Refreshing. Mildew- and powdery-mildew-resistant interspecific variety, a driver of organic viticulture in northern regions: Germany (Baden), Switzerland, Netherlands, Belgium, UK and Denmark. German hybrid created in 1968 in Freiburg (Riesling × Seyve-Villard).
Belgium's first organized PDO (Wallonia, 2004) in the Meuse basin (Sambre, Ourthe, Amblève, Semois), ~30 ha on clay-limestone soils, cool northern climate. Chardonnay flagship white: lively and straight with green apple, citrus, white flowers and mineral touch, tense thirst-quenching acidity. Full Pinot Gris, floral Auxerrois and aromatic Müller-Thurgau in whites. Airy Pinot Noir in light red.
