Franconian sentence

Designation (also Alter Fränkischer Satz, Altfränkischer Satz, Altfränkisch Gemischter Satz) for grape varieties typical of the German growing region of Franconia, which are cultivated in the form Gemischter Satz. However, the term has no legal meaning in wine law. These are mainly the varieties Silvaner (mostly dominant), Traminer and Riesling. Such a wine is produced, for example, by the Rainer Sauer winery. Other varieties such as Roter Elbling, as well as red wine varieties such as Blauer Silvaner, Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) and Blauer Portugieser are also used. See also under Franconian.
