Delicious and incredibly versatile palate profile. Spritzy floral quality, burning slate, tight minerality, fragrant elderflower, bouncing acidity, long finish of melon and honeysuckle.

Fun little white from Germany. Wirsching typically recognized as top producer of Silvaner. I miss the bocksbeutel tho!

Mini bocksbuetel makes everyone smile. Sylvaner inside is pretty good too!

Good basic Franconian Silvaner QbA value. A negociant bottling by the fine Wirsching estate, not the estate QbA.

Weighty, rich, and round like the shape of a granny smith, or this obnoxious bottle. A spherical personality.

Smells like sweet sticky pear juice and bitter celery. Thick texture for a body with an oily finish, laying off the acid a little bit.
