Pale, bright yellow-green. Delicate, fresh aromas of quince, chamomile and ginger, plus a hint of nutmeg. Juicy and dry in the mouth, offering vibrant floral flavors of lemon pith and minty green apple. Finishes lively and persistent, with a light saline touch. This simple but lovely Sylvaner hits all the right buttons; try it with shellfish or with anything involving asparagus and artichokes. “The key with Sylvaner is low yields,” Cathérine Faller told me. I’d add that having 45-year-old vines, which never yield more than 35 hectoliters per hectare even in a generous vintage, is also a big help. (Galloni)

Region: Alsace

The region of Alsace, between France and Germany, is one of the most historically and viticulturally fascinating regions in the world, and produces several famous and widely loved wines which are very much the combined essence of these two important Old World wine countries. Vintners in Alsace have had centuries to perfect their wines, made with the native grape varietals which thrive successfully in the cooler climate, and produce a range of wines which have long been considered amongst the finest in the world. Riesling, Pinot Noir, Gewurztraminer and Sauvignon Vert (formerly known as Tokay d'Alsace) varietal grapes are all commonly and widely grown in the region, with these particular varietals most highly prized by vintners due to their ability to express the excellence of the Alsatian terroir.

Country: France

France is renowned across the globe for its quality wines and the careful expertise which goes into making them, but what is truly remarkable about this relatively small country is the vast range of wines it produces in such huge amounts each year. Not only are the finest red wines in the world said to come from the beautiful regions of Bordeaux and Burgundy, but elsewhere in the country we find the Champagne region, and areas such as the Rhone Valley and the Loire, whose white wines consistently receive awards and accolades by the plenty. This range is a result of the great variety of climatic conditions and terrain found in France, coupled with generations of wine makers working within single appellations. Their knowledge of specific terroirs and grape varieties has, over time, perfected the production of wines within their region, and the end results continue to impress the world to this day.
