- Score: 89 Vintage 2020 Vinous Media The 2020 Sylvaner opens with a burst of fresh apples, chamomile and sweet mint. This is round and soothing on the palate, with ripe orchard fruits nicely accentuated by lime-tinged acidity. It finishes a bit shorter than anticipated yet crisp and wonderfully refreshing.

- Score: 92 Vintage 2019 Wine Advocate The Strasserhof 2019 Alto Adige Valle Isarco Sylvaner is a crisp and luminous expression with a beautiful, albeit slightly austere, bouquet. The wine presents delicate aromas of Meyer lemon, quince, pear and toasted pine nut. There is a floral element to the bouquet, but perhaps more impactful is the wine's linear and focused minerality. To the mouth, this Sylvaner from the Dolomites is full of dynamic energy and tension. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
