Sommeracher Bacchus semi-dry
Bacchus is Franconia's aromatic answer to summer: a cross between Silvaner, Riesling, and Müller-Thurgau, which reaches a rare level of ripeness on limestone soils in Sommerach am Main. Vinified as a semi-dry wine, with enough residual sweetness to support the tropical fruitiness – without becoming heavy.
Winzer Sommerach is one of the largest winegrowers' cooperatives in Franconia, supported by around 330 members. Their vineyards around the Katzenkopf slope are among the sunniest in the region. The limestone soil here shapes the minerality, and the south-facing slope ensures fully ripened aromas, even in a grape variety that can quickly become unstable.
In the glass, the Bacchus displays aromas of mango and papaya, along with elderflower, which steers the fruity character in a floral direction. The palate is fresh, the acidity lively, the residual sweetness well-integrated – no cloying sensation, but a soft, pleasant finish.
- Food: Asian cuisine with coconut milk, light summer salads, goat cheese or tarte flambée with crème fraîche
- Temperature: 8–10 °C
- Occasion: Aperitif, barbecue, uncomplicated after-work wine

The Winery
Winzer Sommerach is the oldest winegrowers' cooperative in Franconia – founded in 1901 by 35 winegrowing families who joined forces during a time of phylloxera infestation and falling prices to survive together.
Today, 90 families carry this idea forward, cultivating around 200 hectares on the Mainschleife and guarding the Sommeracher Katzenkopf, one of the most significant sites in the region.
The motto "Quality makes the difference" is no empty phrase: every bottle can be traced back to a specific winemaker and their vineyard – transparency and community as a lived principle for over 120 years.
