Bernhard 2021 Hackenheimer Kirchberg Silvaner Kabinett trocken
Silvaner has a long and distinguished history in the Rheinhessen and it excels in this site. The wine is zippy and fresh, with an attractive grassy edge and mouth-watering finish. Very easy to drink but not exactly simple! The new 2021 is a throwback to the storied 2010 vintage, with an enlivening acidity that carries the attractive appley flavor (enhanced by partial wood-aging) to a prolonged finish.
