Discover the grape variety: Kerner
Intraspecific crossing between frankenthal and riesling obtained in Germany in 1929 by August Karl Herold (1902/1973). In 1951 and by crossing it with the sylvaner, we obtained the juwel. It should be noted that there is a mutation of Kerner, discovered in 1974 and bearing the name of kernling, with grapes of pink-grey to red-grey colour at full maturity. Kerner can be found in Germany, Belgium, Slovenia, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, South Africa, Australia, the United States, Canada, Japan... practically unknown in France except in a few Moselle vineyards.

The word of the wine: Food and wine pairing
It is the set of techniques that allow for the pleasant combination of food and wine. Food and wine pairing is based on a few basic principles, such as similarity, complementarity or contrast, and involves all the elements that make up the wine and the food (flavours, textures, aromas, etc.).
