Smaragd Honivogl Grüner Veltliner

Pretty amazing. Honey on the nose, low acid, some notes of muted tropical fruit on the palate, savory notes on the back end, pretty round full bodied finish. Such a lovely wine!! — a month ago

Nikolaihof

Vinothek Wachau Riesling 2000

Nikolaihof is among the oldest winemaking estates in Austria with roots going back approx. 2,000 years. The estate sits among Roman ruins and ancient structures. It was acquired by the Saahs family in 1894, passing from generation to generation since then.🤩🤩

In 1971 it was one of the first estates in the world to adopt biodynamic practices and has been Demeter certified since 1998. Its vineyards can be found on steep hillsides of the Wachau region (a UNESCO World Heritage site) in Austria, overlooking the meandering Danube River, with geographical features that help fuel ripening and moderate temperatures during the growing season. ☀️🌱

This wine is medium (trending deep) gold in appearance. 👁️

👃🏻 On the nose are complex aromas with pronounced notes of peach skin, nectarine, ripe papaya, dried apricot, yellow apple, honeysuckle, peony, steely minerality, wet stones, orange marmalade, hay, fennel, damp leaves, honey, cream, and petrol.

👄 On the palate this wine is dry with mouth-watering acidity, mouth-coating and textural qualities, medium alcohol (12.5%), flavors match the nose, and a long, polished finish.

It’s hard to believe this wine is essentially 24 years old, as it has retained incredible vibrancy adding lift to the earthy and honeyed characteristics. It was bottled in June, 2016, after nearly 16 years aging in old Austrian casks, resting underground in Nikolaihof’s dark Roman-built cellar.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Singerriedel Smaragd Riesling 2009

This is the first riesling i have drunk that comes close to the flavour intensity of a Keller. Vibrant palate with more fruit and acidity than the Hubacker. Pleasure to drink — 3 months ago

Had this with spicy Vietnamese noodles and it paired wonderfully with! The sweetness didn’t overwhelm the fruit and acidity. — 2 months ago
