F Engel Sylvaner Reserve

Product Info

Back in his tender childhood, Fernand used to skip about the vineyards. At harvest time, he followed his father and climbed up to the small family press to taste the juice. His forefathers cultivated cereals and vines for decades, but Fernand has a clear preference for work in the vineyard. At the end of the Second World War, the Alsatian vineyard undergoes a revival and 1949 sees the start of the great wine adventure in the family. Amélie, Fernand's great-granddaughter, returns to the estate. She will now look after the export market with Xavier. It is made from 100% Sylvaner grapes, which are grown on the estate’s vineyards in the village of Wettolsheim. The wine has a pale yellow color with greenish reflections. On the nose, it offers aromas of citrus fruits, white flowers, and mineral notes. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a crisp acidity and flavors of lemon, grapefruit, and a hint of spice. It is best served chilled as an aperitif or with light meals such as salads, seafood, or poultry.
