Silvaner Trocken

2008 Franken Silvaner

Castell Silvaner Trocken is a delightful expression of the Silvaner varietal, showcasing the unique characteristics of the Franken region. This 2008 vintage presents a light-bodied profile, making it an excellent choice for those who prefer a crisp and refreshing wine. The acidity is bright and lively, enhancing the wine's mouthwatering quality, while the fruit intensity is prominent, featuring notes of green apple and pear that dance across the palate. With a dryness that leans towards bone dry, this Silvaner is incredibly food-friendly, pairing beautifully with a variety of dishes. Its well-integrated structure and subtle mineral undertones make it a fantastic option for both casual gatherings and elegant dinners.

Riesling is the most famous varietal in Germany, and is made in a range of styles, from dry and steely to sweet and peachy. The wines are classified according to the region as well as how much sugar is in each wine. Aside from the aromatic Riesling, you will also find subtle, refreshing whites made from local grapes like the floral Müller-Thurgau and Silvaner. Germany also produces some increasingly excellent red wine, mostly crisp and brightly fruity Pinot Noir (locally known as Spätburgunder).
