Silvaner Maria im weingarten Richard ostreicher.
This NEEDS a and hour decant. Do NOT a drink sooner.
Nose: yellow flowers. White flowers. Lovely. Really a great nose.
Palate: lemon Zest. Hints of tropical fruit. Mineral. A bit confused. Let’s see where this goes.
As this opens its like elite unoaked condrieu. Silky minerals. Just a hint of tropicality it not so much as to make it annoying. Elegant. Wow.
A great contrast to weltner which is denser and more impactful. This is way on the elegant side of things. Wispy.
Very distinctive

This Scheu is excellent. Some kind of a cross of Riesling and a wild vine by Georg Scheu in 1916 hence the name. Highly aromatic but more green than a Riesling less depth and build more for easy drinking even for this wine coming from old vines. Tastes a little bit like a Sauvignon Blanc. Passionfruit, hint of Pyrazines aka Grapefruit found in the New Zealand Savs’s. 🍋 Lemon. 12%. — 8 months ago

Vintage 2017 | Amazing how fresh the Franken Silvaner stays after bottle and cellar years. Honeymelon and citrus in smell, minerality in taste, crisp and fresh. Almonds in aftertaste. Paired with Thai Pad Kra Pao from tofu. | second day with sole and asparagus, very adequate. — 5 days ago
