Now a perennial favorite, this Sylvaner cuvée, named after the first grandchild, comes from vines in the Glintzberg vineyard. It combines bracing acidity and minerality with just enough tropical fruit aromatics and the telltale tinge of herbaceous notes for which this varietal is famous. Very food friendly, it will show well with all fish and shellfish as well as spicy fare.
