Minerals! Lemonoil, petrol, earth, wool. Quite concentrated, saline, creamy, well balanced. Made me think dry Loire Chenin. But it’s not..
Drinking great right now. — 2 years ago

Lemon and white flowers on the nose, a rich body with mild acid and honey sweetness. "This is a really good one.' Bob, connoisseur of Liebfraumilch. — 3 years ago

Delicious. Better than the Keller Feuervogel IMO and costs a third as much. — 4 years ago

Very exiting nose. Confectionery sugars, greens that are sweet, fiddlehead ferns, sugar snap peas, mineral and airy. Even a hint of saline. Palate is elegant, linear and focused. Juicy and clean. A bit simple. Nice but the J bottling of this is really a big step up. Nice length. Good. — 6 years ago

Vintage 2016 | fermented in cement egg. Incredible light colour. Citrus predominantly in smell, supportive honey and cinnamon. Beautiful balance. It is smart to cellar sylvaners! | paired with shrimps in tomato sauce. — a year ago

Had to crack a ‘21 and put one in the cellar for a few years. Very impressed. But of course KP nails this variety. A but rounder than Riesling with different aromatics but still that good teeth shattering acidity and minerality. Paired with khao soi. — 3 years ago

Almost 2 years since I’ve had this. What a wine. Gorgeous nose of herbal vegetables that are so so fresh. Dynamic mineralIty on the nose with also a hint of fat. Palate is elegant and mineral with wonderful juiciness and a haunting opulent yet undeniably fresh texture. Age has really helped this be fully expressive. Great balance and purity. — 7 years ago

I love this wine. It’s so versatile with food. Amazing combo with bbq beef on skewers. Rich yet ethereal. Killer acids and mouthfeel. Always elite. — a year ago

Honestly dunno much about silvaners, but me likey! Dry, just the right amount of crispy pomelo and Asian pear all riding a granite slab slicked with a little tiny bit of petrol. 10/10 would chug this — 6 years ago
