Notes: Extremely pale
yellow color. Fine aroma of forest
vegetation, wet chalk, and a hint of ripe white grape. Light bodied, but with relatively bold
flavors of forest, ripe white grapes, and chalk with a hint of spice and herbs
framed by a pleasant, crisp acidity.
Surprisingly long finish of ripe grape and apple.
This has proven to be
an interesting contrast to the Alsatian Silvaner I recently drank. While not as full bodied or sweet (relatively
speaking), as the Alsatian wine, this has surprising depth and much more acidic
minerality, which is a characteristic I really enjoy when I find it in a white
wine. Overall, very enjoyable and a good
candidate for a high quality, every day wine.
A Rudi Wiest selection. Good
value.
