White grape varieties – variety, elegance & freshness in a glass 🍇✨

The world of white grape varieties is characterised by an impressive variety of flavours, styles and regions of origin. From fresh and mineral to full-bodied and creamy, white wines offer a wide range of flavour experiences. Whether as a crisp Sauvignon Blanc, aromatic Viognier, elegant Chardonnay or fruity Riesling – each grape variety has its own character and the perfect accompaniment to food.

White wines are grown all over the world and often reflect the terroir of their origin. While cooler regions such as the Loire, Moselle or New Zealand produce wines with high acidity and fine minerality, warmer regions such as California, southern France or Australia offer full-bodied, fruit-emphasised and sometimes wood-aged varieties.

Whether as a summer wine on the terrace, an accompaniment to fish and seafood or as a mature speciality for special occasions – white grape varieties inspire with their elegance and versatility. Discover the best white grape varieties and their perfect food pairings! 🍷🥂
