Another beautiful and crystalline bottle of Sylvaner from the extremely talented Paul Weltner. I love the purity of this bottling and the 2021 shows that in spades. The palate is really the star of the show with liquid minerals that coat the palate in the lightest yet persistent way. There are layers of nuance and different shades that show themselves through notes of herbs, ash, salinity, and bright tart fruit. Wines like this is why I love Sylvaner and make me believe that when made well it can be a star.

Solid Sylvaner. Good crispness and mineral on the attack. Light nose with lime peel and bay leaf. Tight on the finish with a nice persistence. Balanced and compact.

What an enjoyable wine. It was my first sylvaner so I can't really compare it to anything I've had before but this was pure, crisp, and beautiful.
