2006 Riesling Ried Kellerberg Smaragd

FX Pichler's 2006 Kellerberg Riesling Smaragd offers a clear, fresh, wonderfully precise and herbal-flavored bouquet of ripe and dried white stone fruit aromas with floral notes. There is great balance between the confit aromas and herbal/mineral flavors. Highly elegant, rich and dense on the palate, this is a gorgeous, perfectly ripe and balanced Riesling with a seductive texture and great mineral expression. This is surely one of the greatest Rieslings produced in the Wachau in 2006. Tasted in Vienna's Hofburg, June 2016.
