The wine region of Saale-Unstrut
Germany's northernmost region (Saxony-Anhalt), ~650 ha. Nordic whites that are dry, lively and mineral with signature notes of green apple, citrus, white flowers, fresh herbs and a crisp finish — a direct, thirst-quenching style. Dominant Muller-Thurgau (~22%) light and floral, Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc) round and precise, herbaceous Silvaner and taut Riesling. Early grapes suited to the harsh continental climate.
The word of the wine: Chaptalization
The addition of sugar at the time of fermentation of the must, an ancient practice, but theorized by Jean-Antoine Chaptal at the dawn of the 19th century. The sugar is transformed into alcohol and allows the natural degree of the wine to be raised in a weak or cold year, or - more questionably - when the winegrower has a harvest that is too large to obtain good maturity.
