The 2014 Alto Adige Valle Isarco Sylvaner Praepositus opens to a rich, fatty texture and a generous bouquet with bright grapefruit, pear, stone fruit and pine nut at the front. This wine is all about texture and it wears its extra density and glycerine well. It feels weighted and well constructed in terms of mouthfeel. One third of the wine is aged in acacia wood casks and the other two thirds sees stainless steel to maintain freshness.
