Discover the grape variety: Cabernet-Dorsa

Very deeply coloured, structured reds with an inky robe, firm tannins and fresh acidity, with intense aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, plum, pepper, spice and herbal blackcurrant-leaf notes. Dense palate, persistent finish. Grown in Germany (Württemberg, Palatinate, Rheinhessen) for modern-styled dry reds and blends seeking colour and substantial structure. German variety created in 1971 in Weinsberg, a cross of Dornfelder × Cabernet Sauvignon.

The wine region of Franken

Homeland of German Silvaner: dry, straight, mineral and lively whites with notes of green apple, citrus, fresh herbs and a saline touch, planted here for over 350 years (1,500 ha, a quarter of the vineyard). Also supple, floral Müller-Thurgau, taut Riesling, aromatic Bacchus. Some discreet reds (Spätburgunder). 6,040 ha in Bavaria along the Main around Würzburg, red sandstone and shell-limestone soils.

The word of the wine: Guyot (pruning)

This is the most widespread pruning technique. It includes one or two long branches and allows the mechanization of a large number of vineyard operations.
