Franz Hirtzberger Riesling Singerriedel Smaragd 2024 1,5l
Riesling Singerriedel Smaragd from Franz Hirtzberger is a true Wachau icon, sourced from very steep, stony terraces high above Spitz. In its youth it can appear restrained, showing smoky, reductive notes before opening up to white stone fruit, citrus, herbs and wet stone. On the palate the wine is dense, taut and extremely precise, with cool-fruited character, racy acidity and profound, stony minerality. The structure is finely woven and charged with tension. A very long, salty, citrus-fresh finish underlines its enormous ageing potential. A legendary Wachau Riesling for purist fish dishes, shellfish, crustaceans or ambitious haute cuisine.
Ageing in stainless steel keeps the fruit precise and emphasises the mineral line.
