More informations about the variety Sylvaner
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.

Largest German-speaking wine canton of Switzerland, 620 ha around the lake. Star Pinot Noir (Blauburgunder): fine, fresh reds with notes of cherry, raspberry, undergrowth and sweet spices, silky tannins and a delicate style. Also light, floral Müller-Thurgau and precise Chardonnay. A unique speciality: Räuschling, a rare native white almost exclusive to the canton ("vine of the lake"), lively with citrus, white flowers and taut minerality.
