2020 Stefan Vetter 'Steinterrassen Sandstein' Sylvaner, Franken, Germany Vermont 2015 Domaine BinnerThe Steinterrassen wines are something like Vetters 1er Crus they are sourced from older vines from within the stone terraces. Vetter has two Sylvaners at this level, each one corresponding to a unique soil type: Sandstein or sandstone and Muschelkalk or limestone. Normally the Sandstein is the more exuberant wine, but in 2020 the wine is deep with citrus and fruit, yet very restrained. There are ultra fine shavings of citrus fruit and citrus oils
