Domaine Schieferkopf - Silvaner Trocken 2017
Germany
White
Sold individually
Drink
White flowers and yellow fruit (quince, peach) leap from the glass to delight the nose. The palate, with its supple, full attack, is slightly acidic. The aromatic freshness brings structure, which is maintained on a long, beautiful finish. A cuvée full of charm and delicacy!

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one has the right to expect from its appellation(s))
About the domain :
Biodynamic viticulture always takes a few years to take effect, both in terms of rooting and soil life, and Michel Chapoutier is well aware of this, having bought this estate in 2009 with a few wine-loving friends. Located in northern Alsace, on a vein of blue schist, the estate is gradually making its mark. The Riesling parcels (Burg, Buehl and Fels) are beginning to bring out the subtle nuances of the soil.
