2021 Grüner Sylvaner Trocken (Sold out)
Although considered a native of Franken, Grüner Sylvaner also looks back on a long tradition in the Wonnegau, and could well be the original rootstock of Rheinhessen. When grown on calcareous soils around Hohen-Sülzen, it perpetually develops a certain herbal spice. Grüner Sylvaner is raised in steel and wild fermented to be bone dry.
The wine graces the glass in shades of pale yellow with green hues: Yellow fruit aromas, with notes of nectarine and small yellow pear, are balanced with spring kitchen herbs. The crystalline palate is linear and precise, with everything in the right place: the fruit is flanked by a drying texture, with mild and perfectly integrated acidity. Our Grüner Sylvaner is an ace up the sleeve for a colorful range of vegetable dishes, pairing deftly with salads and light dishes just as well as hearty ones such as a classic German Wurstsalat.
