Suckling over Rothlauf Silvaner Großes Gewächs 2020
A new dimension of dry silvaner! The enormously deep and complex nose of dried herbs and wild berries drags you into this incredibly concentrated and vibrant wine, which has a massive structure that gives it huge presence on the palate. All of this might be too much for you in this very youthful form, but we find it totally captivating. The dried-herb and stony finish doesn't want to stop! From organically grown grapes with Naturland certification. Drinkable now, but best from 2022. Screw cap.
