Description

The 2022 Weingut Hans Wirsching Iphöfer Julius-Echter-Berg Silvaner Grosses Gewächs from Franken, Germany, is a quietly thrilling wine that proves Silvaner’s unsung heroism. Hailing from the steep, gypsum-rich slopes of Iphofen’s premier vineyard, it gleams pale straw in the glass, teasing the senses with green pear, wet stone, and a curious whiff of smoked herbs—like a forest after rain. On the palate, it’s a masterclass in tension: taut acidity slices through a creamy, almost oily texture, delivering flinty minerality, crisp apple, and a subtle anise kick. Fermented wild and aged in large oak, it’s bone-dry yet soulful, reflecting Franken’s quirky brilliance and the vintage’s ripe clarity. Sip it with schnitzel or cellar it through 2030—this is Silvaner with swagger.
