Nikolaihof-Steinterrassen Riesling vom Stein Smaragd (2019)

Wachau, Austria

Varietal(s): 100% Riesling 

Smells of fresh Mirabelle, ripe Amalfi lemon and a touch of chervil on a yeasty, smooth nose. The palate presents all this in one smooth, cooling flow, with notions of lemon becoming ever more prominent and apricot making a charming, perfumed appearance. Riesling's exuberance has been tamed into soothing mildness here. Full marks for charm and exquisite purity of fruit.
