The Retzstadt Benediktusberg Silvaner Erste Lage 2022 from Weingut Rudolf May is an outstanding representation of the top quality and unique terroir of this renowned wine region. This Silvaner comes from the exclusive vineyards of the Erste Lage on the Benediktusberg, known for their optimal soil conditions and favorable microclimate.

The grapes for this exceptional Silvaner are harvested by hand, with only the best and ripest fruit carefully selected. Harvesting takes place at the perfect ripeness to preserve the grapes' natural freshness, delicate aromas, and characteristic minerality.

In the winery's cellar, the Silvaner is vinified with the utmost precision and expertise. After a gentle pressing, fermentation takes place at controlled temperatures to preserve the wine's delicate aromas and lively acidity. Careful aging on the fine lees lends the wine additional complexity, texture, and finesse.

The Retzstadt Benediktusberg Silvaner Erste Lage 2022 presents itself in the glass in a brilliant golden yellow with green reflections. On the nose, it unfolds a fascinating bouquet of ripe pears, juicy peaches, citrus fruits, and delicate herbs, accompanied by subtle mineral notes. On the palate, it impresses with a balanced balance of freshness, fruitiness, and a lively acidity structure, culminating in a long and elegant finish.
