Variety: 100% Silvaner
Region: Rheinhessen
Country: Germany

Winery Review: “The fruity, mouthwatering wine has a nice acidity-sugar balance and comes from the so called 'Rheinhessen-Switzerland', the heartland of Rheinhessen. It has a floral bouquet and is full of lemon zest, hint of passion fruit, and smells like yellow fruit, lemon-grass and green tea, all wrapped around a pleasant creaminess and a semi-dry profile. The finish is zippy and refreshing. Perfect for party on the deck as it comes in a liter bottle!”


My Review: The initial smell of this sparkling white wine was very flowery and fruity. I wasn't too huge of a fan of the scent, but the taste of the wine was pretty enjoyable. It was fruity with a little acidity because of the carbonation. The finish was light with hints of pear and citrus throughout the tasting. It wasn't the best wine of the bunch, but I wouldn't mind picking up a bottle for a refreshing drink.

I did not have this wine with food.
