Tasting from 27.07.2022: Anne Krebiehl MW

A solera from three vintages, this iteration including 2013, 2014, 2015 aged in oak barrels. Intense vanilla characterises the nose and hints of dried fruit almost suggest a sweet wine. The palate, however, is dry. There is a strong oak influence - with oodles of vanilla - on the palate, too, but the acidity of Sauvignon Blanc makes this possible. Most unusual, totally compelling. A strong umami finish, salty and moreish.
