Villsenah Sylvaner Scheurebe
2015; Reduced acidity = Welcome. Please see my past notes on this vintage. I had hoped to hold this longer, but it was too darn delicious, the last bottle on vintage.
Paired to za'tar chicken topped with a salad of lemon zest, lemon juice, chopped parsley and toasted/chopped walnuts, perfect. 91-92
Decanted 5H.

Nose has dry grass, lime peel, green apple slice with light wax & petrol aromas.
Palate has shredded green apple, under-ripe peach, warm lime slice, light green herbs, dry sandstone with a mildly tart finish.
Decanted 3H. Seems to be in a holding pattern on present development, compared to our last bottle about 3Y ago.
80% Sylvaner / 20% Scheurebe

Grassy, mineral, waxy, light petrol aspects. Improving as it warms. Notes to be updated.
24hr Update: Very grassy and yellow stone fruit-ish, still picking up a beeswax like note, but wow the acidity is just so balanced and awesome. Yet I feel this is too young now, note to future self, revisit in 3-5 years.

Really delicious. Great fruit. Smoky minerality. Very different in a hard to categorize kind of way bc I’ve never had a blend like this. A tabs tropical. Great acidity. Bought from Fass Selections
