Description
"This is from Günther’s mature Sylvaner vineyard, the oldest on the estate at 42 years. The fruit is picked generally around 10 days after the other Sylvaner vineyard. Fermentation occurs half in stainless and half in large-format acacia barrels. The juice is then racked off entirely to large acacia oak on lees, with regular batonnage for approx 4 to 5 months. There is marked palate weight here and a creamy texture complemented by mineral notes and white pepper spice, all sliced through by a backbone of piercing acidity. 155 cases of this wine was made this vintage." - Importer Notes
