The recycling bin outside the average Alsatian household likely contains more empty bottles of Sylvaner than the more expected Riesling. With its unrivaled versatility and guaranteed mouthwatering abilities, Sylvaner brings something new and fresh to the table. Some may consider Grüner Veltliner the ultimate springtime wine, but Sylvaner is equally as tasty with your grilled ramps and spring asparagus. The flavors are delicate, expressing notes of lemon oil, wet stone, white flowers, and orchard fruits. While the flavor may be delicate, the plate has some power behind it, making it a great cheese wine.
