Horst Sauer is the master of Silvaner and the Echerndorfer Lump, a steep amthitheater-shaped vineyard on a loop of the Main is his chief site. Am Lumpen 1655 is the core parcel, all on Muschelkalk, a triassic limestone. Dried hayflowers and fragrant, dry grass waft from the nose. The palate manages to be sinuous despite its creamy, wonderfully textured power. This is like an elixir of Silvaner that will blossom with bottle age.
