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.
Wine canton of German-speaking Switzerland in the Rhine valley, ~200 ha at 70% reds. Pinot Noir (Blauburgunder) flagship red: fine and silky with signature notes of red cherry, raspberry, undergrowth, dried flowers and spice touch, fine tannins and elegant palate — fresh alpine expression. Supple Müller-Thurgau as white (Riesling x Madeleine Royale, created locally), taut Riesling, ample Chardonnay. Climate tempered by alpine foehn.
