Sylvaner, Franken, Germany
German Sylvaner A serenely mineral, textural and cunningly complex German sylvaner. Chefs turned winemakers and partners Emily Campeau and Christoph Müller are all about polyculture cultivation, gustatorily amicable ferments & creative, almost recipe-like assemblage. The sylvaner for ‘If Only, If Only’ is sourced from four vineyards planted between 1996 and 2003 on ‘gispkeuper’ or soils from the middle to late Triassic period with high, acidity-maintaining gypsum content, a common mineral typically formed by the evaporation of sea water. FUN FACT! Silvaner has a high pectin content, so they foot-stomped the grapes and macerated them overnight to start breaking down the pectin before pressing the next day! The majority of the wine was fermented in their newest barrel made with wood from the Swabischer Hall (close to were Christoph is from in the south of Germany), which was UNTOASTED, and had been seasoned with one wine previous to the sylvaner, while an additional used acacia barrel was also utilized to round and ground without overpowering. Cracking a Lambic beer, fresh green apple, Slovakian cheese lactic roundness, green grape flavoured Chinese jelly cups, marbles, dandelion, diamonds rinsed in mountain water & citric acid crystals. Pour alongside cubed bread, sliced apples, pears, cornichons, salami and a big biiiig pot of fondue.

We don't know if you've heard this, but Canada is a truly WILD place to import wine. Each province is it's own country with super strict rules. For ages, so much of the very best natural wine never made it into the province. That is changing in such an exciting way. We started our own import company to bring you some of our very favourite wines from around the world at the sharpest prices - this allows us to travel, fall in love with a wine, and bring right to your doorstep without a middle person. Put simply, as the importer, we shave one layer off the supply chain. We offer these sweet wholesale discounts when you bundle. From 1, 3 to 6 packs you'll find serious savings. The GWI sticker - Grape Witch Imports - means not only that we strongly stand behind the producer, it also means you won't find a better deal anywhere else in town. It also allows us to source many wines just for the shop - you'll find Ontario exclusives marked GWIE - Grape Witch Import Exclusive. Are you a licensee or producer looking to join our imports roster? Send us an email at hello@grapewitchimports.com
