Nikolaihof
Reserve Steiner Hund Wachau Riesling
Blinded this wine with some friends... The color was not a good indicator of the age but the slightly oxidized flavors indicated it had been around for awhile... Good wine.

1 person found it helpfulNov 11th, 2014A living Riesling of a storied house of age old Biodynamic principles, Nikolaihof is to the Wachau of Österreich what Nicolas Joly is to Savennières of France, pure, mercurial in its textures and tension and protean in its white blossom, fresh apricots and dry honeycomb. 2008 marks another marvelous vintage. A wine you want to kiss on the lips.
