Description

From the great 1999 vintage in Austria. A wine that is lovely now, showing great development and with further time ahead of it if you can resist trying it now.

Clive Coates MW; 18.5 points

Riesling Report, Jan-Feb. 2001; 'Cured meat, apple and lemon rind, intense in aroma but delicate in body, with a cleanly pure, precise refinement. Really penetrating in its intensity but without a trace of excess weight, dancing in taut, lithe sleekness across the palate and expanding on the finish with long, subtle fragrance. Very classy 91-93 pts. Barrel sample'

One of the 4 great producers in the Wachau who set the current standards and are still the reference for quality. Long lived wines.
