Winemaker Notes: 

"This experimental Sylvaner cuvée—unlike any I’ve ever tasted before—is the result of a single parcel picked ripe, yet with loads of acidity still present, and left to ferment slowly but surely for the next eighteen months on its lees. While the rest of their 2018 Sylvaner was in bottle and shipping around the world, this bit remained bubbling away in tank. The wine is raw, unusual, unrefined, with high acidity and richness all at once. For those who like to explore, it offers a nice foray off the beaten path for Sylvaner. The wine evolves and improves as it interacts with oxygen, so we recommend letting it breathe to experience its full complexity." - Kermit Lynch
