In the northernmost reaches of Italy, close to the Austrian border, the dramatic landscape is a fitting backdrop to one of the world’s most important wine-producing areas.
Score: 93Vintage 2021Wine Enthusiast Elegantly structured and vibrant,
this opens with heady aromas of white spring blossom, honeydew melon and a hint of hazelnut. The
savory, polished palate features ripe apricot, pear
and citrus notes alongside tangy mineral and Alpine
herb sensations that lend depth. Bright acidity
keeps it balancedShelf TalkerFull Page Review
Score: 94Vintage 2020Wine EnthusiastRadiant and delicious, this beautiful white has enticing scents of yellow stone fruit, honeydew and crushed stone. The focused, elegant palate delivers ripe yellow peach, Bartlett pear and Meyer lemon alongside saline mineral notes. Grown in high-altitude vineyards situated 2,130 to 2,950 feet above sea level, it boasts crisp acidity that lends racy tension.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review
Score: 89Vintage 2020Vinous MediaThe 2020 Sylvaner lifts up with a nuanced bouquet, mixing hints of vanilla custard with peach skins and crushed rocks. This is a savory effort, with soft textures ushering in tart orchard fruits and herbal tones. It finishes a bit short, hinting at green botanicals and sour melon. There’s a lovely balance here, but I find the 2020 to be lacking depth.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review
Score: 88Vintage 2018Vinous MediaThe 2018 Sylvaner is pretty and understated with notes of wet stone, subtle peach and hints of yellow flowers. It’s soft with notes of mineral-laced apple and spice. Salty minerals linger on the well-framed finish.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review
Score: 90Vintage 2016Wine and SpiritsFruit from Andreas Huber’s younger vines goes into this crisp sylvaner. Pleasant saline notes balance the wine’s fruit tones of green plum, golden apple and dried mango—flavors that would match well with a spicy Thai salad.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review
