Prager Riesling Federspiel Steinriegl 2021 750ml
92 Points Wine Spectator | A juicy wine, with mouthwatering acidity coursing throughout, while beeswax, lanolin and chamomile cascade across the broad palate. Refined and graceful, delivering apple, lime and bitter herbs, with nice flashiness, mineral power and depth.
92 Points Wine Enthusiast | A firmly structured white, it displays a mix of tropical and citrus fruit at the core, while spice and floral notes glide along the edges. It is nicely chiseled, and its minerality comes through on the midpalate, leaving a savory impression on the finish.
Austrian Riesling is often defined by elevated levels of dry extract thanks to a lengthy ripening period and freshness due to dramatic temperature swings between day and night. Steinriegl’s uniquely cool microclimate results in wines of high aroma and focused acidity and its limestone soil provide compact structure and a flavor that is distinctive among Wachau Rieslings.
