Franz Hirtzberger Riesling Steinporz Smaragd 2022 0,75l

Riesling Steinporz Smaragd from Franz Hirtzberger comes from a stony site near Spitz noted for producing particularly elegant, finely mineral Rieslings. The bouquet offers ripe apricot, white peach and citrus fruit, complemented by floral tones and a hint of herbal spice. On the palate the wine is both juicy and firm, with clear yellow-fruit character, lively acidity and beautifully integrated, salty minerality. The texture is smooth yet full of tension, carrying the flavours into a long, refined finish. A harmonious, multi-layered Smaragd that pairs brilliantly with fish, seafood, poultry or delicately spiced vegetable and pasta dishes.

Oak ageing gives this Riesling a calm frame and supports its spicy, structured expression.
