Weinhofmeisterei Mathias Hirtzberger Riesling Kollmitz Smaragd 2022 0,75l

Riesling Smaragd Ried Kollmitz from Weinhofmeisterei Mathias Hirtzberger grows on high-lying terraces above Joching. The vines are rooted in poor paragneiss with very little topsoil, giving small berries, density and marked minerality. On the nose the wine shows exotic fruit, mandarin and ripe peach, backed by blossom honey and gentle herbal notes. On the palate the Riesling is concentrated yet elegant, with juicy stone fruit, a touch of extract sweetness and taut acidity. Cool, salty minerality runs from the first sip into the long finish and adds plenty of tension. The result is a characterful Wachau Smaragd that combines power, finesse and impressive ageing potential.

Classic stainless steel tank ageing keeps the Riesling fruit taut, fresh and mineral-driven.
