Opulent, heady whites, rich and silky, with intense aromas of apricot, yellow peach, mango, violet, honeysuckle and musky, honeyed notes. Discreet acidity, creamy finish. Star of Condrieu AOC and Château-Grillet AOC, co-vinified in Côte-Rôtie with Syrah (up to 20%). Widely exported to California (Central Coast), Australia (Eden Valley) and Languedoc. A Rhône variety.
Wine canton of northern German-speaking Switzerland, nicknamed "Blauburgunderland". Signature Pinot Noir (Blauburgunder, 60-70%): fine, silky reds with signature notes of cherry, raspberry, undergrowth, sweet spices and a chalky mineral touch, delicate tannins and taut freshness — compared to fine village Burgundies. Klettgau is the flagship sub-region. Müller-Thurgau whites (local Riesling-Silvaner) lively and fruity (apple, citrus).
