Horst Sauer Escherndorf am Lumpen 1655 Silvaner GG 2022 is a white wine from the steep, limestone-rich slopes above Escherndorf in Franconia. The Grosses Gewächs classification reflects both vineyard pedigree and precision of winemaking. Aromas of pear, quince and lemon balm are underscored by crushed stone and subtle spice. The palate is taut and finely textured, its broad mineral core balanced by lively acidity and gentle phenolic grip. Lees ageing adds quiet depth without softening the wine’s linear focus. The finish is long and saline, capturing the vineyard’s cool exposure and distinctive limestone tension.

Horst and Sandra Sauer`s 2022 Am Lumpen 1655 Silvaner GG is clear, refined and very elegant on the complex and show-stopping nose that is coolish, clear and inviting. Dense and powerful on the palate, with concentrated and textured fruit and serious phenolic grip, this is a full-bodied and promising Lump Silvaner with a long, tight and still youthful, elegant and salivating saline finish. This is a baby that deserves our interest—or even love—in 5+ years. Tasted at the Vorpremiere VDP.Grosses Gewächs in Wiesbaden in August 2023.

Apple, pear skin and meadow flowers. A creamy, fruit-driven palate, ripe acidity marked with plenty of grip and barrel spice. Lively acidity, deep salty minerality, and warm citrus finish. (PS)
