"Like liquid drops of apricot honey. So young and so intense it takes your breath away. Empyrean, spine-tingling purity."
Tasted by Tamlyn Currin,
wine writer for Jancis Robinson

 

The golden colour of this Silvaner Beerenauslese indicates its extraordinary taste experience. It has notes of candied fruit, creamy caramel and delicate. On the palate, it has a unique blend of fruit and sweetness - perfection in concentration.
