Domaine Ostertag Sylvaner VV

Domaine Ostertag Sylvaner Vieilles Vignes 2023 opens with delicate yet quietly expressive aromas of pear skin, white peach, and crisp apple, lifted by notes of lime blossom, meadow herbs, and a cool, chalk‑inflected minerality that speaks to both biodynamic farming and the depth of old vines. The palate is vibrant, linear, and subtly textural, offering pure orchard‑fruit flavors supported by lively acidity and a fine saline thread that keeps the wine focused and energetic. Hints of citrus peel, fennel, and crushed stone add nuance without interrupting the wine’s sleek, dry, and elegantly understated core. The finish is long, clean, and gently savory, showcasing a beautifully transparent Alsace Sylvaner crafted with Ostertag’s hallmark finesse and poetic sense of terroir.
