The Keller family has deep roots in this area and focuses on wines that clearly express terroir, origin, and grape variety. Burgundian grape varieties such as Spätburgunder, Grauburgunder, Weissburgunder, and Chardonnay play a particularly important role. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe winery is known for its dry, fresh, and fruit-driven wines, but also for powerful and mineral-rich wines with great complexity.

The difference is not in the grape itself, but mainly in the wine style and origin. In Germany, the grape is called Grauburgunder and can often be made fuller and more powerful than the fresh, light style many know as Pinot Grigio. And at Franz Keller, thanks to the loess on top of the volcanic rock of the Kaiserstuhl, it gets a very unique character.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Franz Keller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58944372638021,"sku":"P22298","price":17.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1078\/1183\/2133\/files\/a75b7ae10a27ed1407259079f3b860fdbe3d3717.jpg?v=1787299985"},{"product_id":"franz-keller-weissburgunder-vom-loess","title":"Franz Keller Pinot Blanc from Loess","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Note Franz Keller Weissburgunder vom Löss\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn elegant and fresh Weissburgunder with aromas of white peach, pear, and citrus, complemented by subtle mineral and spicy notes.
