Lively, understated whites with a tender palate and fresh acidity, with delicate aromas of citrus, white flowers, green apple, hay and typical mineral notes. Light and refreshing finish. Made as easy dry whites and more structured lees-aged cuvées. Star of Alsace AOC (one of the historic varieties), absolute signature of German Franconia (Silvaner on shell-limestone soils) and present in Austria and Switzerland. Central European variety of Austrian origin.
Northern German-speaking Swiss wine canton, 380 ha on Jurassic limestone soils. Signature Pinot Noir (Blauburgunder) in Burgundian style: fine, silky reds with signature notes of cherry, raspberry, undergrowth, sweet spices and salty minerality, delicate tannins and taut freshness. Muller-Thurgau second as a lively, fruity white (apple, white flowers, light muscat). Also broad Chardonnay, fragrant Grauburgunder, opulent Gewurztraminer, red Regent.
