"The Sylvaner has great volume and intensity of flavor (RVF)".
40% of these Vieilles Vignes come from the Grand Cru Kessler, in the heart of the legendary Heisse Wanne. A very elegant Sylvaner on the nose, with notes of white flowers, hawthorn and grapefruit. The palate is deep, full-bodied and well-balanced. A pure wine that's perfect with oysters and seafood, or as an aperitif. Uncork now!

Wine rated (2025 guide) 93/100
Domaine rated (guide 2023) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)
About the domain :
An emblematic Bergholtz estate for two generations now. The 18 hectares of biodynamic vineyards are the result of the union of Jean Dirler and Ludivine Cadé. In the range, the fine terroirs of Saering, Kitterlé, Kessler and especially Spiegel have great ageing potential, allowing the slight residual sugars to melt away.

Domaine rated (guide 2025) 3*Stars (They represent the excellence of the French vineyard. The best terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical moment)
About the wine:
Tonic and nervous, Sylvaner has great volume and intensity of flavor, right through to its incisive finish.
About the domain :
Sensitive and experienced winemakers, Jean Dirler and his wife Ludivine are at the helm of this estate, founded in 1871, handed down from father to son for five generations, and biodynamic since 1998. Whatever the grape variety, the wines' precision, density and maturity have never been better: an impressive range of great dry white wines culminates in the magnificent expressions of the Spiegel, Saering, Kessler and Kitterlé grands crus, which are a must-discover and are now named after the four elements (fire, air, earth, water). This house offers an outstanding welcome, and many wines are available in older vintages. The exceptional quality of the entire range in recent vintages has earned the house its third star this year.
