The Silvaner is a grape variety with a long tradition in Wurttemberg. When grown on shell limestone soils, it aquires a particularly fine bouquet, but it will also thrive on heavier keuper soils.
The Silvaner makes wine which is mellow and wonderfully balanced making it very attractive. Like any good wine, it pays to sip and linger over the flavours. A connoisseur will savour with the eyes, nose and mouth by holding the glass up to the light and swirling the wine gently in the glass to liberate aroma and fragrance.
Finally the bouquet will be noted, the wine sipped and tasted , by “chewing” it to introduce the maximum flavour to the gustatory nerves of the tongue, palate and throat which will give the taster the full panoply of flavours available in the wine.
