TERROIR
First documented in 1266, it became the birthplace of the first German Silvaner plantation. Castell's highest elevation, with its extremely steep south and south-west slopes and its location protected by the forest, guarantees a slow ripening of the fruit. The barren Keuper soil, with a multitude of alabaster veins, restrains the growth of the vines while providing an abundance of minerals. The work in the vineyard and cellar promotes these qualities and gives the wines their density, fullness and complexity. 

SENSORICS 
The nose is marked by aromas of harvest-ripe quince and dried pineapple. Fine nuances of Mediterranean herbs enrich the powerful elegance. Plenty of pressure on the palate and the typical saltiness of the gypsum kuper lend a fitting finish. 

VINIFICATION 
Fully ripe, healthy grapes from the best plots on the western slope of the Schlossberg form the basis for our VDP.GROSS GEWÄCHS. Light skin contact and spontaneous fermentation as well as ripening in Casteller wood support the terroir character. 

ORIGIN 
Franconia, VDP.GROSSE LAGE Casteller Schlossberg. The age of the vines is 32 years.

ENJOY TO
A guarantor of high quality and long life - the SCHLOSSBERG Silvaner GG. It makes high demands on food quality and feels at home with classics of high cuisine, as well as international modern dishes. The SCHLOSSBERG likes a drinkable, elegant cuisine, which does not want to shine at first sight, but convinces through craftsmanship and product quality. Light roasted aromas, herbs and fruity components are welcome. The sauce should be dense and full-bodied. Fillet of wild-caught pike-perch roasted on the skin, nut butter sauce, braised sauerkraut, pepper quince, thyme polenta.
