From 75cl screwcap. Boy, this is concentrated: An essence of Silvaner. Healthy yellow-fruited scent; alarmingly heavy, almost sweet entry; pear, very strong, bright lemony acidity and unusually heavy 13,5% alc quite evident on the mid-palate. Beautifully made, but was it worth the effort? Palate fatigue after the first glass may have to do with the richness of the 2015 vintage, so I look forward to trying the 2017 in due course (and am apprehensive about how the 2018 will turn out). No hurry. 89(-90)P

One last Football Weekend at Franken; 5/17/2019-5/19/2019: This on is creamy too, great harmony on the palate, fullbodied and rich in tasty fruit, great now, a very good Silvaner to enjoy from now on and over the next few years, ***-***(*)

A fruity and flowery Silvaner. Well balanced with long aftertaste.

Dette er en meget god vin. Topp kompleksitet med en duft av blomster, sitrus, jord og tre. Flott syre med lang ettersmak.
