Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden colour, a supple palate and preserved acidity, showing undemonstrative aromas of white flowers, citrus (lemon) and herbal notes. Very niche, rustic profile. Preserved in a few ampelographic collections, it belongs to ancient varieties of heritage value whose commercial distribution has almost disappeared. Rare, little-documented white variety grown in tiny quantities, studied for its genetic and historical interest.

71% white region: Riesling is king (5,000 ha), dry to off-dry, ripe yellow fruit, apple, citrus and fine saline minerality. Supple, floral Müller-Thurgau for everyday, the world's largest Silvaner plantation with herbaceous, straight notes. Historic cradle of off-sweet Liebfraumilch. Some supple reds (Dornfelder, Spätburgunder).

The word of the wine: Aging

Period during which a wine is kept in a cellar where it goes through different phases of evolution of its aromatic range and a maturation of its constituents (evolution of the colour, refining of the tannins, harmonization of the different flavours, etc.). The wine evolves better and less quickly in large containers, whereas it deteriorates prematurely in half-bottles.
