Description
Delicious and versatile Weissburgunder. This wine is beautifully light yellow in colour and has aromas of yellow and green apple and peach on the nose and also a light butter tone and spiciness. In the mouth this white wine is round and soft. The wine has a good body and beautiful freshness. Long, mineral aftertaste.
This Weissburgunder vom Löss is produced by the authentic Franz Keller winery from the Kaiserstuhl area, part of the Baden wine region. The Kaiserstuhl is the warmest and sunniest wine region in Germany and is characterized by volcanic soils covered with fertile high loess deposits that offer excellent wine-growing conditions for what they call in Germany the Burgunder varieties such as Weissburgunder, Grauburgunder, Chardonnay and Spätburgunder.
Franz Keller – Schwarzer Adler is a gastronomic concept in Baden and actually also in the rest of Germany. The company consists of a wine estate, wine import, wine trade, hotel and no less than 3 restaurants. The company is run by Fritz Keller and his son Friedrich is mainly involved in winemaking. The name Franz Keller stands for dry, refreshing, fruity but also complex and mineral-driven powerful wines. The wines are always of excellent, impeccable quality and are highly appreciated in Germany and far beyond. The winery finds it very important that the terroir, the origin and the character of the wine are reflected in the taste. The approach to winemaking is inspired by the wines and the "savoir-vivre" of their French neighbors. The goal of this winery from the very beginning has been to make wines that are the perfect complement to good food.
This wine is an excellent accompaniment to (light) fish dishes and flammkuchen (this is an authentic dish from Baden: a base of thin bread dough topped with crème fraîche, onions and strips of bacon, baked in a (wood-fired) oven).

Franz Keller - expressive, ambitious wines from the Kaiserstuhl
The Franz Keller winery is located near the border with France in the southern German town of Vogtsburg im Kaiserstuhl, part of the state of Baden-Württemberg. Franz Keller winery has several vineyards in the Kaiserstuhl, which is part of the wine region of Baden. The Kaiserstuhl is Germany's warmest and sunniest wine region and is characterized by volcanic soils covered with fertile high loess deposits that provide excellent wine growing conditions for what they call Burgundersorten in Germany such as Weissburgunder, Grauburgunder, Chardonnay and Spätburgunder. The volcanic soils vary widely from vineyard to vineyard. This soil diversity contributes enormously to the exciting taste variation of the wines of this authentic winery.
The natural terraced environment is symbiotic with the winery, allowing gravity to be used during the wine production process. In addition, the unique architecture has been designed in such a way that wine production, cellar, tasting room and the restaurant KellerWirtschaft all fit under one roof. Fun fact about this roof: it is covered with native crops from Badberg, a nearby nature reserve. In this way, the natural conditions are enhanced by the building and its structure. Partly because the building has been dug into the ground, creating the optimal climatic conditions for wine maturation and storage.
