Details and technical informations about Weingut Spiess's Silvaner Eiswein.
Discover the grape variety: Ondenc
Ondenc is a white grape variety from the southwest of France, particularly present in the vineyards of Bergerac, Duras, Montravel and Gaillac, and is very sensitive to disease, but vigorous and fertile. Pruned short, this variety resists very well to the autan wind. ondenc gives dry or sweet white wines of a beautiful finesse. To gain in complexity, alcohol content and aromatic expression, it is often blended with other white grape varieties. When distilled, it is also the source of high quality perfumed eaux de vie. It is often used in the composition of AOC Côtes-de-Bergerac, Bordeaux, Côtes-de-Duras, Gaillac, etc. Ondenc accounts for less than 10 hectares in France, but is very present in Australia.

The wine region of Rheinhessen

Many of its most significant viticultural areas are favorably influenced by the Rhine river, which runs aLong its North and eastern borders. The Rhine, along with the Nahe river to the west and the Haardt mountains to its South, form a natural border. Rheinhessen covers an area south of Rheingau, north of Pfalz and east of Nahe, and is located within the Rhineland-Palatinate federal state.
The word of the wine: Performance
Quantity of grapes harvested per hectare. In AOC, the average yield is limited on the proposal of the appellation syndicate, validated by the Inao. The use of high-performance plant material (especially clones) and better control of vine diseases have increased yields. This is not without consequences on the quality of the wines (dilution) and on the state of the market (too much wine). We must not over-simplify: low yields are not synonymous with quality, and it is often in years with generous harvests that we find the greatest vintages (1982 and 1986 in Bordeaux, 1996 in Champagne, 1990 and 2005 in Burgundy...).
