Sommerhausen – Steinbach VDP. Erste Lage – Silvaner – 2019

Silvaner is a grape everyone should get to know. Complex yet light on its feet with intense minerality. This wine is the hallmark of the estate, and the funky Bocksbeutel bottle is the hallmark of Franconia (Franken) where it has been a symbol of regional quality since the 1700’s.

The winemaking tradition of the Steinmann family dates to 1537. Now in its 15th generation and under the guidance  of  the  passionate, skilled and energetic Martin Steinmann, Schloss Sommerhausen balances its long tradition with Martin’s continual desire to innovate and improve his family’s storied estate. His focus on the region’s famed white wines is centered around the winery’s exceptional Steinbach vineyard. Its steep slopes, limestone soils and mature vines (some with roots as deep as 15m) showcase the sublime character of Franken wines.
