Kuenhof - Peter Pliger
Sylvaner 2022
Sylvaner 2022
SKU 5798
Peter's wines are stunning and some of the most sought after in Italy. They are bone dry, but loaded with pure, rich fruit, plenty of extract and alcohol. They cut across the palate like a sword, but the complexity and structure is compelling. In many ways the wines' reflect Peter's admiration for Rieslings of the Mosel and Veltliners of the Wachau but they are distinctively Italian, displaying a stony minerality that differs from those grown just north or south of his property and are expressive of a unique terroir. The winemaking is the same for all varieties. They are aged in a combination of stainless steel and acacia botti with no malolactic and they age superbly.
Gold with appealing floral scents, the palate is full bodied with stone fruits, honeysuckle, alpine flowers and freshly cut apple. An undercurrent of chalk and woodsmoke lingers on the palate, giving this elegant wine an added sense of structure.
