Vintage 2016 | Great effort of Horst Sauer, this Riesling Auslese. It has great tension and balance between sweets and acidity. Will improve further with cellar years.

Vintage 2016 / The 2011 auslese of this wine is the reason I visit the winery. When asked what grape they like better, winegrowers in #franken choose without hesitation for Silvaner. But the #riesling performs masterfully when it is ripe, awesome balance and that ‘touch’ of richness when you know at once: wow, I am drinking a Great Wine! Good balance, nice acidity.

Vintage 2011 / Apricot in smell, botrytris, great balance with surprisingly high acidity
