Score 17/20 · Drink 2019-2025, Julia Harding MW, jancisrobinson.com, Mar 2019
Cask sample. Comes from Steingrube and Bürgel vineyards, as does the Grüner Silvaner, but Feuervogel is always from the older vines – 50+ years. Smells riper and richer than the Grüner Silvaner, more pear and stone fruit than herbal. More spice, too. Creamy, inviting. Then on the palate, tension and intensity and a little more severe than I expected from the aroma yet still has creamy citrus. A wine that takes you on a journey of flavours and aromas in a short space of time. (JH)
