Souvignier gris

The fungus-resistant grape variety Souvignier Gris is one of the most exciting discoveries for sustainable, artisanal viticulture. With its reddish-pink berries, it brings a fascinating, textured mouthfeel and a stable phenolic structure to the glass. The wines are characterised by a fine herbal spice, ripe stone fruit notes and a vital acid structure that gives them tremendous drive.

That this variety works excellently in sophisticated blends is demonstrated by Franz Keller in the creamy and spicy “Kaiserstuhl Weiss”, where it provides additional depth alongside Chardonnay and Grauburgunder. Those wishing to explore the grape as a single-varietal wine will find characterful interpretations at M. Schädler - Steffen Mugler, which showcase the enormous potential of the variety both in classic dry vinification and skin-fermented as an Orange Wine.
