2016 Silvaner trocken Gutswein, Rheinhessen, Germany

Very slightly reductive nose, vegetal and herbaceous notes, hint of tobacco, cool pomaceous fruit and a touch of citrus, floral traces, light mineral notes. Clear, ripe, elegant, juicy fruit on the palate, yeasty and delicate nutty aromas, lively, very elegant acidity, ripe tannins provide some grip, earthy and salty mineral notes in the background, good substance, still young, floral traces in the background, delicately creamy, medium body, but remains cool, firm structure, vegetal and light yeasty notes on a very good, slightly nutty, elegant, juicy finish. Excellent and versatile partner with food.
