grape varieties Rieslaner

The Rieslaner is a cross between Riesling and Silvaner that was bred in 1921 by August Ziegler at the Bavarian State Institute for Viticulture and Horticulture in Veitshöchheim. The grapes are medium-sized, loose-berries and have a golden yellow color when fully ripe. The berries are juicy and have a high sugar concentration and a distinctive acidity. Rieslaner wines are known for their intense aromatics, which often include aromas of ripe apples, citrus fruits, apricots and honey. The wines are characterized by a lively acidity and a pronounced fruitiness. The Rieslaner is a very interesting grape variety that is particularly valued for the production of noble, sweet wines. Its intense aroma profile and lively acidity make it a unique variety, but one that requires careful care and good growing conditions. With the right measures, Rieslaner can deliver wines of exceptional quality and shelf life.
