Tasting profile
Structure: medium-bodied, medium acidity, dry
Johannisberg is the Valais name for Sylvaner, and Jean-René Germanier's bottling comes from the slopes of Chamoson. It is a round, gently aromatic dry white with white peach, quince and a characteristic bitter-almond note, a hint of hay and a stony finish. A classic partner for raclette and the Alpine table, best in its first few years.
Serving: Serve at 9–11 °C.

Where it comes from
Valais, Switzerland
Valais — In the sunny upper Rhône valley of southern Switzerland, Valais is the country's largest and one of its most varied wine regions, farmed on dramatic Alpine terraces.
Silvaner
Silvaner is a white grape that arose as a natural crossing with roots in Austria, though it became most closely associated with German winemaking, where it is valued for its gentle, food-friendly character.
