Bright gold. Abundant, aromatic nose of honeyed yellow apple and wet stone. Smells sweeter than it really is. Medium bodied palate gives crisp yellow apple, honeysuckle, and stony minerality from entry to moderate finish. Medium plus acidity. Exquisite Austrian Riesling from Kremstal with all of the aromatics and complexity of — dare I say it? — a Wachau Smaragd. Wursts and pork dishes are the natural pairing, but the universal white is always ready for anything, including extra time in the cellar. Drink now through 2029.
