Tasting notes

There is no doubt a good potensial in this wine. Unfortunately the making is not very inspiring. Lightly golden/brownish colour. The nose is flowery with a lot of minerality showing. No doubt good depth here. But also hints of apricot and some volatile acids. Unfortunately not very cleanly made. In the mouth this is a fullbodied silvaner in an off-dry style. There is a good concentration and again there is some very fine minerality here. But the fruit is rather coarse and rustic with again a noticable touch of VA and hints of earth. The acidity is a bit low in the balance. Some citrus in the finish.
